arrow through me

1 oz Gin (Tree House's Hildegard Von Bingen)
1 oz Amaro Pasubio
1 oz Cocchi Americano

Stir with ice, strain into an old fashioned glass, and garnish with a lemon (orange) twist. Two Saturdays ago, I reached for my copy of The Madrusan Cocktail Companion by Michael and Zara Madrusan, and there I landed upon the Arrow Through Me by Andrew Cordero at Seneca in San Diego circa 2022. I was drawn in by the lightly bitter and fruity Negroni style, and I am always looking for uses for my bottle of the blueberry vino amaro Pasubio. Here, the Arrow Through Me landed with a pine, woody spice, and blueberry aroma. Next, berry and grapefruit notes on the sip released pine, blueberry, herbal, and gentian flavors on the swallow.
