Moonriver #52 - Burnt Bless and Bane

This month we take a look at three shots I've drafted and adjusted several times over and are always hits at the table.

Burnt Honey (shot)

1/2 oz Wild Moon Birch Liqueur
1/2 oz Honey Liqueur
1/2 oz Jack Fire

TASTING NOTES
+ Big hit of gentle cinnamon and honey.
+ Slight burn at the back.
+ Honey notes continue to punctuate the taste long after the burn fades.

Bless (shot)

1/2 oz Dr. McGillicuddy's Apple Pie liqueur
1/2 oz Wild Turkey American Honey
1/2 oz Ginger Ale

TASTING NOTES
+ Bright and refreshing.
+ Apple Pie is often a win.

Bane (shot)

1/2 oz Johnnie Walker - Song Of Fire Scotch Whiskey
1/2 oz Raspberry Liqueur
1/2 oz Lemon Juice

TASTING NOTES
+ Song of Fire is a bit more burnt than other scotches.
+ Raspberry smoothes this out, though.
+ ...and then the Lemon is straight up a slap in the face...like a Bane on your senses.
+ Luckily...the lemon is over quickly.

So get your dice out and prepare for an onslaught.
