1/2 oz Amaro Montenegro

Shake once without ice and once with ice, strain into a glass (old fashioned), and garnish with freshly grated nutmeg.
Two Wednesdays ago, I delved back into the "Drinks of Drink" notebook and found the Queen tribute recipe named Fat Bottomed Girl. This Flip dubbed after the 1978 song was served at and presumably created for the charity drag brunch held at Drink in November 2020 and sponsored by Rittenhouse Rye. I have only had Amaro Montenegro and orgeat paired together in two drinks before – namely Backbar's
Magical Mezcal Mystery Cure and Cure's
Little Boots, so I was curious to try this in a Flip instead of a Sour. Here, the Fat Bottomed Girl began with a woody and nutty aroma. Next, a creamy and citrussy sip twerked into a rye, almond, citrus, and allspice swallow.
