This drink, a bracing combination of Chartreuse and Gin, is great for winter.
The Alaska cocktail is the go-to drink for warming up customers in cold weather. This classic martini, made with Old Tom Gin and yellow Chartreuse is one of the most loved drinks in the country.
This drink's unique golden colour is a reference of the Alaska Gold Rush. The name of the drink is also an ode to Alaska's wild beauty, which invokes images of snow-covered mountains and wild flowers as well as pine trees.
Although there are many variations of this drink, the most popular is made with London Dry Gins such as Bombay Sapphire and Beefeater. Jim Kearns from Slowly Shirley in Greenwich Village claims he prefers Old Tom gin because of its "softer harmony & complexity."
To make this warming drink, you will need to add a little bit of the dark sour. As mountaineers are known to use butter on expeditions to aid in calorie burning, they will also add warmth to the drink by adding a little bit of butter.
Keep the cabin warm. Alaska Airlines partners with Straightaway Cocktails of Portland to bring two their best-selling cocktails into the air.
Passengers flying 350 miles or more on Alaska can now purchase a new 100-milliliter can of Straightaway's Oregon Old Fashioned or Margarita in the air. The price is $12 for passengers who travel in the main cabin; first-class passengers get it free.
This drink is great for people who don't like strong gin but still want a gin-based cocktail. The sweetness of the Old Tom gin is balanced well with the herbaceous Chartreuse, giving this drink a fresh, fruity flavor that's not too sweet.
A dry gin such Junipero or Death's Door can be used to make a complex drink. Both gins go well with Chartreuse.
If you prefer a complex cocktail, try making this Alaska with a combination gin, bitters, and Chartreuse. It's possible to add a little sherry for more depth, but this is not necessary.
This is a great drink to share with friends or loved ones on a quiet night.
To make this drink, mix a jigger of gin with a jigger of yellow Chartreuse and a dash of orange bitters in a mixing glass with ice. Strain into chilled glasses or coupes and garnish with lemon twist.
The Alaska is a beautiful cocktail that is both sweet and strong. The flavors of yellow Chartreuse, gin, and gin give the cocktail a rich, herbal flavour with pine notes that echo the state's 40 percent coverage. This is a delicious combination that will be loved by all customers.
