Black Prince
The Black Prince is a type of rum Manhattan—a particularly good one at that, deep, rich, fruity and dark—but I also think of it as perhaps the best liquid argument we have for Averna. In a way, all delicious cocktails are arguments for their component ingredients, but it’s unusually true here of the Averna, which, if we’re being honest, needs as many cheerleaders as it can get.
Ingredients
- 2 oz Aged Rum (Zacapa 23 works well)
- 3/4 oz Punt E Mes
- 1/2 oz Averna
- 1 dash Orange Bitters
Preparation
Add all ingredients to a mixing glass with ice and stir briskly for 10 to 15 seconds (if you’re using small ice) or 20 to 30 seconds (if you’re using big ice). Strain into a coupe or cocktail glass, and garnish with a cherry, or nothing at all.
