For when you're feeling footloose.
in this and that’s certainly the way I’ve always made it. In the experiments for this article, though, I was surprised that my favorite version was with the mild and overlooked Canadian Whiskey. Gaige himself called for Fine Arts Whiskey which no longer exists, but which would’ve been a milder five-year old blend put out by the Canada Dry company and presumably with more in common with Canadian whiskey than bourbon.
History notwithstanding—side by side, I thought that Canadian whiskey was a more composed final product, allowing the maraschino to speak without the two stepping on each other’s toes. Crown Royal or Canadian Club are both good, as are others. If using bourbon, grab a milder kind—now is a good time to use one of the softer wheated bourbons like Maker’s Mark, or a solid 80 proof option like Four Roses Yellow Label.
Final note on whiskey: If you use something lower than say 86 proof, you’ll want to use a little less liqueur to prevent it from getting too sweet. And if it does end up too sweet, just add a 1/4oz more whiskey until it comes back into balance.Maraschino liqueur is a liqueur made from the sour marasca cherry, which grows most readily around the Adriatic Sea in Italy and Croatia.
All of this is to say: Whatever orange bitters you get is fine. Which isn’t really true, but it’s true enough. If you’re feeling plucky and want to order off the internet my favorite all-purposers are probably the juicy and spice-heavy Miracle Mile, and the lovely, floral Bitter Queens.
