Finally a Cocktail from my Hometown of Boston Massachusetts!

This delightful little number was created by Nicole Lebedevitch at The Hawthorne in Boston, Massachusetts around 2010. It is said that she created this drink for a regular who loved Manhattans but leaned toward bitter drinks. It is about a quarter ounce off from Manhattan specs, but I think it’s close enough. According to Robert Simonson it reads on the palate as a Sazerac Variation (a tip of the hat to the Cognac in IMHO). What do you guys think? Let me know in comments!

Here’s links to the tools I use in this episode:
Barfly Copper Measuring Cup
Barfly Teardrop Spoon
Cocktail Kingdom Mixing Glass
Barfly Scalloped Julep Strainer
Libbey 5.5oz Coupe
Angostura Bitters
Regan’s Orange Bitters
