Walking Stick: A desert-born masterpiece cocktail | Cocktail Fridays

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Deep in the desert lands of Phoenix, we not only visit the nationally famous Undertow Tiki bar, but take home a recipe from co-founder Jason Asher, The Walking Stick. Truly this is one of the most flavorful, well-balanced modern era cocktails we've ever sampled. At 7 ingredients it's a bit complex, but well worth the effort.

¾ oz Lime juice
¾ oz Cinnamon syrup
½ oz Campari
¼ oz Cherry Heering
¼ oz D.O.M. Benedictine
1 oz Mezcal
1 oz Aged Demerara Rum

    I love the bloopers at the end! Those are typically my favorite part of any video, but really well done in editing. Especially like those sound effects as you share the recipe. And we hope to go visit Arizona this winter, so will definitely put the undertow on our to do list!

    So glad you like the show! I appreciate you enjoying the details! Indeed, there are a few fun places to visit in Arizona tiki-bar-wise.. Drunk Munk in Scottsdale is pretty fun and has some decent cocktails-- and some nice rums to sip, but yes the ENTIRE building of Undertow is just.. ridiculous.. you could honestly do 2 to 3 nights in a row visiting Century Grand, and do the Century Grand Platform 18 train bar, Undertow, and then the bar right beside the train platform as well, all of them are immersive experiences. Thanks again for watching!

    Stephane, big big thanks to you, since I believe I originally discovered this cocktail through your Instagram! I love Undertow so it was amazing to try an original recipe straight from the mind of Jason Asher. I really need to give you a shout out directly on the channel in an upcoming episode, your channel is such a great asset to the cocktail community

    Thanks Ann! Ha, is that a sir-mix-a-lot reference? :D Yes, I've had the pleasure of visiting Undertow at both their locations over the years, they also have an *incredible* incredible bar next to it called the Century Grand that is also an immersive experiential bar. Walking Stick has rapidly become one of my all time fav cocktails, so I hope you dig it if you make it at home! And yes, would be super awesome to do a tour!-- but perhaps we'll all see each other at Tiki-O 2023, in-person-hang of all the YT tiki folks! :D Cheers!

    Thanks for watching, Tony!! I love this cocktail, if you're unable to do it with Campari, I wonder if you could swap Cynar in instead? Or, if you just don't enjoy the bitter taste, I'd probably recommend Montenegro in place of the Campari, would probably give a sweeter but still complex flavor to it! Cheers!

    Truly this is one of the best cocktails we've ever had on the channel, but it may also just appeal to my specific tastes, where the ingredients are both in conflict AND in harmony, to me it makes a killer flavor combo! And ya, Undertow is truly a destination-bar experience!

    @@CocktailFridays I'm drinking one right now! I didn't have Cherry Heering (could never find it when I was on a Singapore Sling kick a few months ago,) so I subbed Luxardo Sangue Morlacco. I didn't have a demerara rum, so I used Plantation Barbados 5 Year. It came out pretty good, and I can pick out a different flavor with every sip! Maybe for next weekend, I will pick up a bottle of the El Dorado and compare notes.

    Great intro! This is a fun and complex cocktail. Lots of bold flavors. In retrospect, I would have preferred to scale back the Mezcal because I like but don’t love the smoke. Maybe split with tequila or up the rum. What are your thoughts? Either way, tasty cocktail and great video, David. Cheers pal! 🤙🏽

    Thanks, Vino! Oo that is interesting, ya I would either suggest splitting with tequila, or if you took it out entirely maybe splitting that remainder with equal parts tequila and campari, just to try to re-introduce some of the ashy/bitterness that comes a bit with the mezcal, but without the smoke.. I'd have to give it a try! But ya this truly is one of my favorite new cocktails! Thanks for watching as always!
