Holiday Almond Cocktail

Holiday Almond Cocktail

This is Jenn Tyldesley’s favorite way to enjoy amaretto. Her original recipe in Cold Spell uses gin, but I prefer bourbon or rye, which she says is just fine.
Print Recipe Pin Recipe

Ingredients
  

  • 1½ ounces gin (or substitute your bourbon of choice—maybe Port Chilkoot Distillery’s Boatwright Bourbon from Haines, Alaska)
  • ½ ounce amaretto
  • 5–6 drops Free Pour Jenny’s Solstice Bitters Amarena cherries in syrup, or homemade Bourbon Cherries (recipe above)

Instructions
 

  • Combine all ingredients in a mixing glass filled with ice. Stir until well chilled. Strain into a snifter or rocks glass filled with fresh ice. Garnish with a cherry.

Parmesan and Spruce Tip Shortbreads

These savory shortbreads are a perfect complement to Miche Genest's special holiday drinks, the Yukon Rob Roy and the Holiday Almond Cocktail. Parmesean cheese and spruce tips work together for a crunchy, umami treat you'll keep coming back for.

Rob Roy Cocktail

This one features the Yukon’s favorite single malt, Two Brewers Whisky, the 42nd and 43rd iterations of which were released this December. So far it’s only available in Canada, so when you’re next passing through Whitehorse, be sure to try some.

Spiced Mixed Nuts

For a really fiery treat, double the cayenne pepper.
