About
This is an original of mine. A former student asked me to make a cocktail inspired by the song Générique by Miles Davis. Moody. Elegant. A little smoky. Subtle strawberry note for summer. Cognac felt right for Miles. A bit of amaro for depth, a touch of Islay Scotch for smoke. This sipper was made to be enjoyed on a nice summer evening.Cheers y’all!
