Monferrato | Cocktail Party

Monferrato

The Monferrato feels like an ancestral cocktail, but it’s actually a fresh new(-ish) recipe from master mixologist Leo Robitscheck, at NYC’s NoMad Bar.

The citrusy base of Cocchi Americono (a white wine apéritif) and triple sec is gorgeous against the light, bubbly sparkling wine – but it’s really the bitter that steal the show here, bringing a warm cinnamon spice that somehow makes the drink as comforting as it is refreshing.

Ingredients

Instructions

Stir all ingredients (except the sparkling wine) with ice. Strain into a flute glass and top with the sparkling wine. Express an orange twist over the glass and discard the twist.

I love this app

Super practical, informative, easy to use, even inspiring for lovers of cocktails or just those curious to try a few recipes over time and keep an inventory of favorite recipes handy. Updated fairly judiciously, thankfully, so it isn’t cluttered up with unproven concoctions resulting in an overwhelmingly-sized library with too many ridiculous or middling cocktails. Attractive, welcoming, well-designed UI.
