What if I told you one whiskey and an amaro and an aperitif tasted like Cola when mixed together? Well, wipe that disbelief off your face and watch this video!
The Cocchi Cola was created by Jim Meehan for the Summer 2013 Menu at PDT (Please Don't Tell) in New York City. PDT is one of the Top bars not only in NYC but one of the top bars in the world and this simple, pleasing drink will show you why. Not much to say on this one, the drink says it all!

Love Cocchi Americano too. Started buying it for the Corpse Reviver #2 in place of Lillet. Been needing a new bottle for a while now. I've been wanting to try the Amaro Nonino but it's like $60 a bottle around here so I've been putting it off. This cocktail sounds really good.

@TheEducatedBarfly 4 года назад

The good thing about Nonino is that you’ll only use it in small amounts so it’ll last a good long while

@kurtwinchell 2 года назад

I'm curious about the flavor of the tiki bitters, and how vital they are to this cocktail. I'm not sure I have the palette refinement yet, so I only have ango and orange bitters in my collection so far. Keep up the great work.

@0011010110101100 4 года назад

Made it as shown. Tasted nothing like cola, but the bitters themselves smelled like coke, so I’ll try more than three drops. Cocchi Americano and seltzer over ice is amazing though, so thank you for suggesting it.

I have heard tell that Cocci Americano and Tempus Fugit's Kina L'Aéro D'or are good substitutes for each other in cocktails. Wondering if that's true here or not, since the Cocci is such a 'star' element in this drink.

@ChemicalMarco 4 года назад

As an italian with a passion for cocktails and spirits it took me of surprise to find out of the huge possibilities offered by amari in cocktails. It's just something I would've never though of because, as you said, most of the time it's just something you sip after a huge meal to help digestion. Now I can say I do love my Amaro Nonino or my Cynar in cocktails and I am looking forward to have more space so I can build an Amari section in my own bar. A question about the whiskey you used. It's written Tennessee whiskey, is that legally a bourbon or not? What is the difference with a Kentucky straight bourbon? Especialy from the flavour profile, if I'd like to make this cocktail can I just use a regular bourbon (Buffalo trace, Maker's Mark etc?) Thank you!

@TheEducatedBarfly 4 года назад

No Tennessee Whiskey is its own category and I believe that is now (as of a couple years ago) a law. That said most (not all) Tennessee Whiskey fits the legal requirements for bourbon, but the maple charcoal filtering process (otherwise known as the Lincoln County Process) is what firmly makes it Tennessee Whiskey

I have to make this now. It has the sweetness, bitterness, and I'd assume citrus and spice from the tiki bitters. That's the cola profile right there.

Steve the Bartender substitutes Montenegro in his Paper Plane video. From the description: 'although it doesn't have the same citrusy profile of Nonino, it does make a good alternative (both cheaper and more readily available).'

@barstoolbanter7212 4 года назад

You can. I would go with vodka or a light rum. Be warned that alcohol will preserve it for longer, but at lower proofs it still will go bad.

@ct-t69 4 года назад

Instead of cocchi can i use lillet (white, rosé or red)?

@TheEducatedBarfly 4 года назад

If you use lillet you’d use white to replace the cocchi it’d be missing some flavor but it’s a reasonable sub

The Educated Barfly Per the bottle, it’s distilled and aged in “Tennessee” which means at Dickel. Then it says bottled at Uncle Nearest Distillery, which speaks for itself.

an "apertif-style after dinner drink" is called a digestif. you even used that word later in the video

@TheEducatedBarfly 4 года назад

Not to be a know it all but a digestif is not aperitif style seeing as aperitif by definition is a before dinner drink. That’s why there are two different words to describe them. What I was saying was this was reminiscent of an aperitif but I’d want to drink it after my meal but is light in quality (like an aperitif) as opposed to dark and bitter...
