Pompier | Cocktail Party

Pompier

We love to drink, but we don’t always drink to get drunk, you know? That’s when we turn to low-proof cocktails like the fabulous Pompier – all of the wonderful flavors and aromas of spirits, none of the hangover.

This recipe is a great opportunity to try out a higher-quality dry vermouth, or one of the fancy new artisanal, small-batch vermouths hitting the market lately. The only catch is that it must be fresh – no more than two or three weeks old. Vermouth has a tendency to take on a funky, metallic flavor after it’s sat open for a while, and in proportions like the Pompier’s, the difference will be notable.

An awesome cocktail app with curated recipes

I'm shocked that there are no reviews listed for this app. I found it on reddit's cocktails forum. The drink list in this app is much shorter than in many of the other apps I've seen, but the quality and reliability of the recipes is much much higher. These are more like the drinks you would get at a good mixology bar instead of the drink equivalent of your aunt's jello fruit mold that people just "love." I much prefer a list of cocktails that are reliable, good and repeatable than a huge pile of garbage recipes. This app is great and delivers great, reliable cocktails.
