Cabbagetown
This drink is a riff on the Toronto (rye/fernet/syrup), so I called on my friend @sidds.pix for some Toronto neighborhoods. Cabbagetown (sweet name right?) isn’t too far from Toronto proper, and this riff is not far from the original. It’s a revitalized area that still retains a lot of its older, Victorian architecture. And from what Google tells me, it’s kinda… fancy, with farmer’s markets, trendy coffee shops, and higher-than-average priced homes.
Amarigarita
Yes, adding amaro is almost always the answer to the question. I love riffing on sidecar/margarita template, and it turns out amari fit in really nicely to the liqueur “slot”— so here, instead of triple sec, I bring in two citrus-forward amari.
