Two Fridays ago after my evening's shift, I was in the mood for a nightcap. For a selection, I turned to my picked-over but not yet completed
P.D.T. Cocktail Book for a recipe. The one that caught my eye was Daniel Eun's circa 2007 Harvest Moon. Daniel described how the drink looks like the sky "during the harvest moon -- when the reddish-orange moon rises after sunset." Once stirred and strained, the Harvest Moon offered an orange, apple, and herbal bouquet to the nose. On the palate, a citrussy wine sip led into a bounty of complex flavor on the swallow including rye, apple, herbal, and clovey spice.
