Squeaky Wheel | Cocktail Party

Squeaky Wheel

If a standard Negroni just isn’t hitting the spot anymore, if you need a funkier, smokier flavor to get you going, look no further than the Squeaky Wheel, a coffee-mezcal twist on the classic from Nicholas Bennett of Cedric’s at the Shed in New York City.

Mezcal and coffee liqueur bring a roasted, smoked flavor, enhanced by the spice of the bitters. Bennett calls for Angostura bitters, which are lovely – but we’ve also enjoyed it with spiced chocolate bitters. An unexpected splash of amaretto is the perfect bow on top, softening the edges just a touch.

Far superior to any other cocktail app

I have only been using the app for a short time but already I can tell that it is far superior to any other cocktail app I have used until now. The user interface is easy to use and visually appealing, and the search function displays recipes as you type which will make this app easy and fast to use. Highly recommended for use as a bartender or server, or at home making drinks for a party or night in. The developer also promises recipes added regularly and the customer support is second to none.
