Rye tai

Ingredients

  • 2 oz. rye whiskey
  • 3/4 oz. orgeat
  • 3/4 oz. pineapple juice
  • 3/4 oz. fresh lemon juice
  • 6-10 dashes Angostura bitters

Instructions

  • Shake and strain into a glass full of crushed ice
  • add Angostura dashes on top

Verdict

Seems amazing, but is very weak. All the flavors are lost. Even the Angostura on top is hardly felt. It's like I went through all this trouble for a glass of slightly flavored water. Strangely, drinking through a straw helps. It's like the flavor was hiding under the crushed ice. Maybe it's too much dilution.

Score

4/10
