Ward 8
This was the first drink we made after picking up a proper bottle of rye. Old Overholt gets great marks, especially for cocktails, while being priced at less than $18 a bottle here in Boston.
- 1 1/2 oz rye (used Old Overholt)
- 3/4 oz lemon juice
- 3/4 oz orange juice (used freshly squeezed Valencia oranges from Florida)
- 1 tsp grenadine
Shaken. Served in a Martini glass with with a lemon garnish.
Good drink. The 12BB book says that the key to this drink is to only use just enough grenadine to take away the sharp sourness of the lemon juice, but that it is supposed to remain tart.
