Both the Bicyclette and L'Amour en Fuite are great that way, although I seem to prefer the latter more.frederichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17939679837071519844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3940010684303946553.post-5273951394276301022010-04-23T19:11:51.748-04:002010-04-23T19:11:51.748-04:00Thanks Frederic ...

There was a drink called the South of North by Brian Miller at Death & Co. here in NYC that uses it with tequila/lime/bitters and champagne and it is very good.<br /><br />i think after i finish up my tiki exploration i'll have a go at St germain with the drinks you mentioned.KeithPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06066691829767062879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3940010684303946553.post-74217777165346021132010-04-23T08:55:37.131-04:002010-04-23T08:55:37.131-04:00Looking back through the drinks on here, there'...Looking back through the drinks on here, there's the Ward 9 and the Déjà Vu in Dehli (use Angostura bitters instead) which show how St. Germain can transform a drink by swapping simple syrup. The Esmeralda and Boutonnière are two that also work rather well. To show how it can be used sparingly and add to a drink, the Bicyclette and L'amour en Fuite are rather nice (the former is in the link in the latter's right-up). Use the St. Germain tag to find them.<br /><br />Also a simple St. Germain in sparkling wine or the more complex Yellow Jacket (st.G, yellow Chartreuse, lemon juice + sparkling wine) are other good choices.frederichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17939679837071519844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3940010684303946553.post-20421343930555666182010-04-23T08:21:35.543-04:002010-04-23T08:21:35.543-04:00I have been struggling with using St Germain (a pr...I have been struggling with using St Germain (a pretty new liq for me); this sounded interesting ... any other thoughts on a good St Germain-based drink for getting my arms around the liq?KeithPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06066691829767062879noreply@blogger.com
