Preston

Preston cocktail

The cherry garnish complements the tannic note of this original cocktail by Matthew Benevoli.

Ingredients:

1.5 oz bourbon (such as Basil Hayden)

1 oz Japanese plum liqueur

0.5 oz cherry liqueur (from canning)

2 oz steeped and chilled Earl Grey tea

Optional: a dash of lemon juice

Garnish: Boozy Cocktail Cherries

Method: 

In a short glass, build all ingredients (expect garnish) over ice, then stir to combine. Garnish with three cherries on a cocktail pick/skewer. Serves 1.
