Had to record somewhere the contents of my our potions consumed Saturday night (aka date night) at the Flatiron Lounge on 19th St. Our bartender was Adam and he knew what he was doing.
Something I can’t remember the name of (Elaine’s)
- bourbon
- carpano (sweet vermouth)
- grand marnier
- Benedictine
- chocolate bitters
- shaken with ice, strained
- orange peel (flamed, wiped on rim)
“Agave Old-Fashioned”
- Tequila anejo
- agave syrup
- ice, stirred
- lemon peel (removed after stirring)
- Laphroaig mist swirl
- orange peel for garnish
- over rocks
Something else we were given for free without a name, very clean.
- tequila
- manzanilla sherry
- splash of pear brandy
- lemon peel
- with ice, strained

Mmmm…cocktails.
I haven’t been down to the Flatiron in quite a while. This needs to be remedied. Last place we went for coctkails was Death & Company, which was excellent.

Yum that first one looks good to me.

Oh boy they were all good — correction, the first one with bourbon was one of Elaine’s. The first one I had was tequila, carpano, Cynar, orange peel, something else.
Our ‘tender told us about Death & Co., it’s definitely on our list.
