Nightmare

A crisp, spirit-forward sip where piney gin and a sweet-tart cherry liqueur mingle with the nutty, oxidative warmth of Madeira; a teaspoon of orange juice brightens the edges. It pours a pale ruby to amber hue and is served chilled, strained up in a cocktail glass. Worth trying if you enjoy balanced, slightly sweet cocktails that lean on botanical gin with layered fortified-wine depth.

  • 1.5 oz Gin
  • 0.5 oz Cherry Liqueur
  • 0.5 oz Madeira
