DANIEL'S BROILER AND THE COCKTAIL CULTURE....

@Schwartz Brothers Restaurants Blog: DANIEL'S BROILER AND THE COCKTAIL CULTURE....Tweet this!
Daniel's Broiler's new cocktails for spring are full of homemade ingredients, infusions and artisanal twists, part of the cocktail culture in the Northwest. Seattle and Portland have been the leading metropolitan areas in the rebirth of vintage cocktails in the past five years. Some of these vintage cocktails are made with homemade bitters, which take a month of infusing spices and high proof alcohol from recipes that are over 100 years old. Bitters are also added and add complexity to the drink and overall balance.

Homemade Falernum, used in Caribbean- style drinks and Amer Picon (a Amaro) are two specialties that have not been available for a number of years, have been reverse engineered and their recipes spread over the internet from various cocktail gurus. These are also part of the new spring cocktails and add zest and smoothness to the drink.

Trying to stay current and bringing new tastes to the cocktail is here to stay. Come by and see what's new and what we are working on next.
