Try this 100 year old low ABV cocktail! The Chrysanthemum

Get your bottles at House of Bitter Bear 👉 https://houseofbitterbear.com Today’s cocktail is the Chrysanthemum! This low ABV, pre-prohibition classic is a favorite of mine and definitely worth a try. The combination of dry vermouth, Benedictine, absinthe, and orange oil is surprisingly delicious, and will have you coming back for another sip. Without any real bitter or sour flavors, the balance in this drink is delicate. I’ll show you the ratios I prefer, and we’ll also incorporate a regal stir with an orange peel to add a soft brightness to the cocktail. Hope you enjoy this recipe. Cheers!
