  • Holiday Cocktail Recipe: Test Pilot's Tiki Blinder
    HOLIDAY COCKTAIL RECIPE: TEST PILOT’S TIKI BLINDER At Test Pilot bar (testpilotcocktails.com) in Santa Barbara this recipe is made with a slushy machine. Co-owner Brandon Ristaino provides instructions for home bartenders to recreate the same effect with a blender. Hamilton Demerara is a Guyanese rum. If it is unavailable, Ristaino suggests substituting El Dorado 12-Year-Old Rum. The recipe calls for a highly acidic port. Another variety will work as long as it isn’t too sweet. Makes 1 cocktail ¾ ounce VSOP Cognac, such as Raynal ¾ ounce Hamilton Demerara rum ¼ ounce port, such as Ramos Pinto Reserva ¾ ounce Pear Cordial (recipe follows) 1 dash Abbott’s Aromatic Bitters 1 dash Cherry Bark Vanilla bitters, such as Bittercube 3 dashes absinthe, such as St. George Absinthe Verte ½ ounce freshly squeezed lemon juice 1½ ounces purified water Freshly grated nutmeg, for garnish Place Cognac, rum, port, Pear Cordial, bitters, absinthe and purified water for each serving into a separate sealable plastic bag. Freeze bags overnight. To serve, place frozen mixture and lemon juice in a blender and blend. Then pour mixture into a chilled cocktail glass, and garnish with freshly grated nutmeg. PEAR CORDIAL Ristaino recommends juicing three fresh Bartlett pears with skins on in a blender or juicer for the main ingredient in this cordial, but commercial pear juice can be substituted. Makes 16¾ ounces or enough for 21 Tiki Blinder cocktails 8 ounces Bartlett pear juice (from about 3 pears) 8 ounces granulated sugar ¾ ounce overproof vodka, such as Everclear Combine pear juice and sugar in a pitcher and mix thoroughly until sugar dissolves.
