    Using "Orange Curaçao" instead of Grand Marnier turns this into a "curled" version.

    The lemon twists are important for this drink. Squeeze one before the drink is poured (coat), and the second after the drink is poured (cover) and use this second peel to rim the edge of the glass.

    As we all know, #bitters are a crucial ingredient for many #cocktails. A few old recipes referred to (defunct) peach bitters. When Fee Brothers began producing them I took it on myself to see if I could come up with a few cocktails that might be able to make good use of it.

    Garnish: Lemon twist

    I created this drink in 2000 to be the "house cocktail" for my home bar, which I’ve nicknamed the "Black Feather". In my original recipe I used my own home-made bitters, but lacking that, Angostura, or almost any "aromatic bitters" should work just fine.

    Paul Harrington was a vanguard of the cocktail revival, promoting quality and classic cocktails in the late 1990’s. One of his creations he simply named “The Drink Without A Name”, when I was adding this to my site, I couldn't bring myself to give it such an empty name, so I christened it the “Harrington”.
