“As a drink recipe, this one is pretty easy to assemble: just measure, mix and stir. However, it calls for some relatively obscure ingredients that are worth seeking out. Kirschwasser is a clear spirit (i.e. eau-de-vie) made from cherries, and Maurin Quina is a bitter French aperitif made with cherries and quinine. When it’s cold out I love to garnish this drink with Luxardo cherries—always in season—even though the original recipe calls for fresh.”
