The coronation is taking place on the same day as the Kentucky Derby, so why not celebrate both with this cocktail, which is a blend of Early Grey infused simple syrup and Woodford Reserved Bourbon. As the brand notes, “travel your tastebuds from London to Louisville.”

The recipe:

  • 1 oz brown butter fat washed Woodford Reserve Bourbon
  • 1 oz Woodford Reserve Rye
  • 1/4 oz Earl Gray Rich Simple Syrup
  • 2.5 mL Woodford Reserve Sorghum & Sassafras bitters

Brown butter fat wash: Melt 1 stick of butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir constantly and observe until milk solids brown and there is a distinctly nutty aroma. Pour directly into 2 cups of Woodford Reserve Bourbon. Allow to infuse overnight in the fridge. Strain off after a minimum of 10 hours.

Earl Gray Syrup: Brew very strong Earl Gray tea. I used 2 teabags for 200g of hot water. Add 400g of white granulated sugar to the brewed tea. Stir until dissolved. (This is a 2:1 rich simple syrup.)

11

Old Forester’s The Crown Julep

Another Kentucky Derby x Coronation mash-up comes in the form of this “Crown Julep” drink from Old Forester.

The recipe:

*To create syrup, use a 1:1 ratio of demerara sugar to Earl Grey tea brew.

Directions: Add the Earl Grey syrup and mint leaves to a Julep cup and gently muddle together. Add a heaping scoop of crushed ice to the cup, followed by 2 oz. Old Forester & 1 oz. Pimm’s. Gently stir and then garnish with a bunch of fresh mint.

Queen Victoria regularly ate a slice of sponge cake with her tea. As King Charles III is the first monarch to be descended from Victoria on both sides, honoring the British queen just makes sense. Buckingham Palace Pastry Chefs shared the recipe for the “Victoria Sponge” a few years ago for Royal Garden parties, and it feels right to make it for the coronation.

3 Mai Tai Recipes That Put a Bitter Spin on the Trader Vic Drink

3 Mai Tai Recipes That Put a Bitter Spin on the Trader Vic Drink

When Don the Beachcomber began slinging Zombies and Grog in the 1930s, sparking a decadeslong tiki craze, “bitter” had not yet entered the tiki lexicon. Sour, sweet and spice were the typical trappings of Don’s so-called “Rhum Rhapsodies.” Today, however, thanks to the bittering of the tropical backbar, you’d be hard-pressed to find a tiki bar that couldn’t double as an aperitivo bar.

Indeed, bitter and herbal liqueurs are a perfect match for the layered fruit and spiced notes of tiki, and their eventual pairing was an inevitability. Perhaps the earliest example of their complementary qualities is the Jungle Bird, a late entry into the tiki canon, composed of rum, Campari, lime and pineapple juice. Created in the late 1970s, the drink has become a Trojan horse for the introduction of bitter Italian ingredients into the tiki style, a trend that has only ballooned in recent years.


The Jungle Bird played no small role in the spread of this hybrid approach, better known as aperitiki, but it’s the Mai Tai that has proved to be the blueprint to which bartenders turn time and again to expand tiki’s bitter palate. Jeremy Oertel’s aptly named Bitter Mai Tai, for example, follows in the footsteps of the Jungle Bird by leaning on Campari as the bracing backbone of his crowd-pleasing spin, while Dan Sabo’s Kentucky Mai Tai brings the Mr. Potato Head approach to new heights, retaining only the citrus and orgeat of the original, and introducing Cynar for a welcome note of bittersweet earthiness. (Cynar also stars alongside Jamaican rum in Oertel’s other spin on the template, the Artichoke Hold.) The Disgruntled Mai Tai, meanwhile, builds on the expected combination of ingredients with an ounce of Aperol and an upturned bottle of Underberg for a final bitter touch. 


As the amaro market continues to expand, tiki’s bittersweet side will only continue to evolve. As Anthony Schmidt, partner at San Diego’s False Idol, declares: “I have yet to meet an amaro I didn’t want to make work.”

Perhaps the most riffed-upon cocktail in the tiki canon, the Mai Tai serves as the inspiration for Jeremy Oertel’s decidedly bitter spin. Intrigued by a version he encountered that used Angostura bitters in place of rum, Oertel takes his bitter iteration in a different direction, incorporating vibrant red Campari. A measure of funky Jamaican rum provides extra fortification in this version, a staple of the now-closed Brooklyn bar Dram, where Oertel first created it.

The name of this Mai Tai riff nods to the source of its bourbon base, but that’s not the only update Dan Sabo makes to the original. Mezcal, peach liqueur and Cynar, a bittersweet Italian artichoke liqueur, make an appearance alongside the expected lemon and orgeat.

The Disgruntled Mai Tai takes a cue from European drinking traditions in this playful spin on the tiki classic. To the familiar combination of Jamaican rum, lime, orgeat and Curaçao, Attaboy’s Sam Ross adds an ounce of Aperol as well as an upturned bottle of Underberg for a bitter, bracing final touch.  

This Hanky Panky Recipe Puts a Spicy Twist on the Fernet Drink

This Hanky Panky Recipe Puts a Spicy Twist on the Fernet Drink

The Hanky Panky had always been a favorite of Ektoras Binikos, beverage director at Sugar Monk in Harlem, New York. When he set out to develop his own recipe for the drink, a variation of the classic Martinez, he opted not to mess with the “golden ratio” of Ada Coleman’s original recipe. Instead, his approach was to dissect and tweak the drink’s individual components, which are typically equal parts gin and sweet vermouth, plus a bracing bar spoon of Fernet-Branca—a simple and elegant construct, he notes. 

First, he subbed genever for gin, in a move that was admittedly more about practicality than preference. Each Monday, Sugar Monk offers classic cocktails to accompany live jazz performances. Because the menu leans on Prohibition-era drinks, it’s a gin-heavy list. “So we thought, let’s try something different,” he says.


At first, he tried a base of unaged whiskey, or moonshine, in place of the traditional gin. “The cocktail was too round, a little heavy,” according to Binikos. He then pivoted to malty genever, which added just enough complexity. Specifically, he uses Old Duff, an unaged Dutch genever distilled from a mix of rye and malted barley, which adds depth while being light enough that it doesn’t put off gin purists.


Juxtaposed against the genever, Binikos adds an equal amount of Carpano Antica, the bar’s vermouth of choice, for its vanilla tones, which harmonize with the maltiness of the genever.

Echoing the original, a teaspoon of Fernet-Branca anchors the drink. While Binikos’ preferred version switches the amaro for Branca Menta, he wasn’t convinced others would love it as much as he did. “Menta can take over,” he concedes. So he returned to Fernet-Branca, which allows the whiskey-like grain notes in the genever to shine.

The final differentiating touch comes via housemade orange bitters. When the pandemic temporarily shut down New York’s bars and restaurants, Binikos began manufacturing herb- and spice-infused amaros, liqueurs and bitters. Although these elaborate flavors had always been part of the bar’s drinks, he took advantage of the enforced downtime to codify the formulas and bottle them for commercial sale. 

The orange bitters—one of 17 varieties developed by the bar “to create something unique to Sugar Monk, another layer”—are made by combining coriander and cinnamon with a mix of Seville orange, bergamot, “a little bit of Buddha’s hand if available” and Thai or Japanese chile peppers. The latter ingredient imparts a touch of heat, which distinguishes the bitters from others on the market. While Sugar Monk’s bitters can be purchased at the bar, to approximate the effect at home, Binikos recommends infusing Regans’ orange bitters with fresh chiles. 

“There’s a little heat at the end, but not too much,” Binikos says. “It brightens the cocktail a little bit.” Finally, a quick spritz of orange oil over the top of the drink adds enticing aroma and accentuates the bitters. 

The result provides an accessible introduction to genever, with just a flicker of spicy heat enlivening a traditional stirred drink. And despite the conventional wisdom that the Martinez is a forerunner of the Martini, Binikos says his version is closer to a Negroni, thanks to its mix of sweet vermouth, orange and aperitif-adjacent Fernet. “It’s like two-thirds of a Negroni,” he says, “but more whimsical.”

Summer is here and the temperatures are gradually rising each day. Many of us dislike the idea of stepping outside our houses and having to bear the heat and humidity.

What you need:

The base of this drink is fresh muskmelon pulp and milk. You also need to add a little custard powder. This ingredient is not essential, but helps thicken the sharbat. You also need condensed milk for the same reason. In place of it, you can use sugar to maintain the sweetness level. Small-sized sago pearls (sabudana) and sabja seeds are added to give the drink a lovely mouthfeel and also enhance its cooling properties. You can top the drink with chopped dry fruits and/or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

How to prepare:

  1. Halve one muskmelon and remove the core along with the seeds. Scoop out the remaining fleshy pulp of the melon using a spoon. Blend the pulp (without water) to form a puree.
  2. In a pan, cook the mini sago pearls in water on high flame. Once they are almost transparent, switch off the heat, strain them and set aside.
  3. In a small bowl, mix the custard powder with a little water to form a thin mixture with no lumps.
  4. In a big pan or kadhai, heat milk over low to medium flame. Before it comes to a boil, add the custard powder mixture and stir continuously.
  5. Add in the condensed milk and mix thoroughly. Taste and adjust sweetness as required.
  6. Finally, add the muskmelon puree prepared earlier and stir well. Cook for around 2 more minutes and then transfer to a bowl to cool.
  7. Once the drink has cooled, add soaked sabja seeds as well as sago pearls from earlier. Mix well.
  8. Pour the drink into glasses and add toppings of choice.
