Tootsie Roll

Tootsie Roll

The Tootsie Roll is an uncomplicated cocktail with surprising ingredients that does exactly what it promises: it tastes like a Tootsie Roll candy, in cocktail form.

The Tootsie Roll is the invention of mixology consultant Aisha Sharpe, and it’s a lesson in the magic of ingredient harmony. The chocolate bitters are a given, of course (and no, mole bitters won’t work here) – but it’s the pairing of peppery rye whiskey and roasted-raisin Pedro Ximenez sherry that fills in the unexpected flavor of the beloved ten-cent candy.

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.
