After three years of following The Educated Barfly and experimenting, our dear reader, Philip Isles‘ own recipes, he has finally created one worth sharing. He named it after his son, Henry, whose name literally means ‘king of the house,’ and was born earlier this year in January. This is a Mezcal Negroni variation, using Cocchi Americano to mellow the flavors of the Mezcal and elevate the orange Amaro to the same level as the Mezcal. A bar-spoon of Ancho Reyes Verde gives a hint of heat, but not enough to distract. It works with the classic Negroni formula of three ingredients with equal parts per ingredient.
