A toast to the roast

Following on the Thanksgiving theme, I give you Eric Felten’s cocktail offering for Thursday.

Not having tasted any of the ingredients, I have no clue what the Bella Ruffina tastes like. I do know I’m not going to find any of them (except possibly the orange bitters) in the great state of Washington, so I’m unlikely to be making it in a few days.

Frankly, I wonder how Felten reaches his recommendation decision—there are only about eleventy-six thousand cocktails he could have chosen; why something sweet, fizzy & Italian?

Well, regardless, if you can find the components, knock yourself out.

Me? Possibly a couple of fingers of Oban & Roederer thereafter. Now that’s something to be thankful for.
