broadway

40 mL Michter's US1 Rye Whiskey (1 1/2 oz)
10 mL Bonal Gentiane-Quina (2 tsp or 1/3 oz)
5 mL Maraschino Liqueur (1 tsp Luxardo)
2.5 mL Maple Syrup (1/2 tsp)
1 dash Angostura Bitters
1 dash Orange Bitters (Angostura Orange)

Stir with ice, strain into a rocks glass with ice, and garnish with a cherry (omit).
Two Sundays ago, I delved back into The Claridge Cocktail Book and spotted the Broadway created by Nathan McCarley-O'Neill at the Claridge's bar in London. Overall, it reminded me of a Fancy Free with hints of maple and Bonal quinquina to round out the balance. In the glass, the Broadway showcased a rye and nutty cherry bouquet to the nose. Next, grape and maple notes on the sip gave way to rye, maple, cherry, and clove flavors on the swallow.
