Merry Widow Cocktail No. 2

The drink tonight was a 'Merry Widow Cocktail No. 2',  found on page 121 of my Bartender's Guide. We shared this cocktail with our neighbors, who seemed to enjoy it. The drink was sweet, but not as much as the one last night, and was better. It may be worth a second try.

The recipe:

1 1/4 oz Maraschino (Luxardo)
1 1/4 oz Cherry Brandy (LeRoux)

Stir with ice and strain into cocktail glass.
Serve with a cherry. I also used a piece of tangerine as a garnish along with the cherry.


Cheers.
