¼ oz Foro amaro
¼ oz Montenegro
½ oz apricot liqueur
2 oz rye
stir, up, lemon
A variaron on Erik Adkin’s “Fort Point” (Heaven’s Dog, 2010), this is a happy, we-don’t-have-Averna variation following Rosy’s suggestion to try Foro instead.

½ oz Averna
¼ oz Benedictine
¼ oz Rothman & Winter apricot liqueur
2 oz Rittenhouse rye
2 dashes Angostura
stir, big rock, stuck cherry
Finally, a Manhattan variation variation I feel is good enough to name. Based on “The Slope” by Julie Reiner of the Clover Club, this recipe replaces ¾ oz Punt y Mes with Averna and Benedictine. The result is completely different but still delicious.
Named for the neighborhood where my grandmother lives (with whom I briefly lived, too).
