Pasilla Later

Bright, clean and floral with a rebellious chocolaty twist, this spirit-forward cocktail uses the framework of an Old Fashioned by incorporating sugar and bitters then adding alcohol.

Ingredients

• 2 ozs Orange Muscat Brandy
• ½ oz Pasilla Pepper Simple Syrup
• 4 dashes Mole Bitters

Directions

• Add all ingredients to your cocktail mixing glass, fill to the top with ice. Keeping the back of your spoon to the glass, stir for 45 seconds or until the outside of the mixing glass is lightly frosted. Taste test periodically to ensure proper dilution.
• Strain cocktail into coupe glass to filter out ice OR serve over large ice cube in a short tumbler glass. Dealer’s choice.
• Garnish with a slice of expressed orange peel or a slice of the candied pasilla pepper.
