The Alaska Cocktail (or, “The Further Adventures of Genepy”)

The Further Adventures of Genepy: Finally – a non-limey cocktail that showcases Yellow Chartreuse’s or Genepy le Chamois’s flavor! This is a classic cocktail based on Old Tom Gin and Yellow Chartreuse. I substituted Genepy for the Chartreuse in this, and the slightly stronger flavors of the Genepy pair beautifully with the Old Tom!

 Here’s the original recipe:

ALASKA COCKTAIL
2 ¼ oz Old Tom Gin (Hayman’s – I also like Tanqueray’s)
¾ oz Yellow Chartreuse
1 dash Orange bitters
Garnish: lemon twist

Stir ingredients with ice, strain into chilled glass.
