berry dangerous fix

1 1/2 oz Krogstad Aquavit
3/4 oz Lemon Juice
3/4 oz Cane Syrup 2:1 (1 oz 1:1)
1/4 oz Campari
4 drop Orange Blossom Water
1 Strawberry

Muddle the strawberry, add the rest of the ingredients, and shake with ice. Strain into a double old fashioned glass, fill with crushed ice, and garnish with a fresh strawberry.
Two Mondays ago, Andrea had bought a carton of strawberries and requested a cocktail to use them. I remembered spotting a recipe or two fitting that bill in The NoMad Cocktail Book, and I selected the Berry Dangerous Fix from that tome. That Fix was created by Jane Danger, and it utilized the strawberry-Campari duo that worked great in the Louanalao, Royale Cup #4, and other drinks. Once prepared, the Berry Dangerous Fix welcomed the senses with strawberry, caraway, and star anise aromas. Next, a lemon and berry sip slipped into a caraway, star anise, and bitter strawberry swallow.
