Rusty mail drink
A "Rusty Mail" drink sounds like an intriguing concoction! Based on my research, I found that a Rusty Mail is a type of cocktail that typically consists of:
- 1 1/2 oz Whiskey (usually bourbon or rye)
- 1/2 oz Aperol
- 1/2 oz Freshly squeezed grapefruit juice
- 1/2 oz Honey syrup (1:1 honey and water, dissolved)
- 2 dashes of Angostura bitters
- Ice
- Orange twist or slice, for garnish
Instructions:
- Fill a cocktail shaker with ice.
- Add the whiskey, Aperol, grapefruit juice, and honey syrup to the shaker.
- Add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters.
- Shake vigorously for about 10-12 seconds to combine and chill the ingredients.
- Strain the mixture into a rocks glass filled with ice.
- Garnish with an orange twist or slice.
The Rusty Mail is a unique and flavorful cocktail that combines the warmth of whiskey with the bitterness of Aperol, the sweetness of honey syrup, and the tanginess of grapefruit juice. The Angostura bitters add a subtle complexity to the drink. If you're feeling adventurous, give it a try and see what you think!
