Ludovica's New Fangled Old Fashioned
Number of Servings: 1
Added By: Butch
My Yacht Name: MV Smartini
Yacht Manufacturer: Kristen
Ingredients: Bourbon (your choice)
Angostura Bitters (original or orange)
Habanero Rich Syrup (Agave Syrup and 2 habaneros)
Orange (for the peel only)
Cubed ice
Shaker
Directions: Habanero Rich Syrup:
Empty the entire contents of a squeeze bottle of agave syrup into a sauce pan. Chop up a couple of habaneros and toss 'em in. Bring to a simmer, and taste occasionally. When it's hot enough for you, remove from heat and allow to cool. Using a small funnel and screen strainer, pour the syrup back into the bottle, filtering out the habanero chunks and seeds.
The Cocktail:
Put 4-5 ice cubes into the shaker, with:
2 oz. bourbon
3/4 oz. habanero syrup
4 or 5 shakes of bitters
Shake for 30 seconds.
Strain over new ice cubes into your favorite highball glass. Garnish with a twist of orange peel.
Baccashaa!!!
Comments: If you like a good Old Fashioned, and you like things a little spicy, you're gonna love this one! We got the recipe from Ludo, the amazing bartender at The Palapa Grill in Sint Maarten. She makes her rich syrup with sugar (2 cups sugar, 1 cup water, boil to dissolve the sugar, then chill), but we found it easier, and a tad healthier, to use agave syrup. And she would NEVER make one with just any old bourbon! But we've found that it's delicious even with the cheap stuff.
