Alpine Ember

AI-generatedEasyRocks

A brooding, smoke-kissed embrace where Japanese earthiness and Italian botanicals circle each other like old rivals at dusk.


Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 oz Shochu (barley/mugi)
  • 1 oz Montenegro Amaro

Method

  1. 11. Fill a mixing glass two-thirds full with large, clear ice cubes.
  2. 22. Add the shochu and Montenegro Amaro directly to the mixing glass.
  3. 33. Stir steadily for 30–40 seconds until well chilled and properly diluted.
  4. 44. Strain into a chilled rocks glass over a single large ice block.
  5. 55. Allow the drink to rest 20 seconds before serving so the flavors knit together.

PRO TIP

Use a mugi (barley) shochu rather than imo (sweet potato) — its lighter, slightly nutty character harmonizes with Montenegro's orange-peel bitterness without competing; imo shochu will overpower the amaro's delicate florals.

Garnish — expressed orange peel, discarded
