I bet you haven’t tried Croatia’s Best Kept Secret —Antique Pelinkovac, an herbal liqueur with a harmonious blend of over 40 botanicals. Unlike many amaros, Antique strikes the perfect balance between sweetness and bitterness, making it an ideal choice for both seasoned mixologists and cocktail enthusiasts.
I was fortunate to try some recently. Antique arrived stateside in late 2022 and has since won the hearts of mixologist and imbibers alike.
I made a Sazerac with it. Not any old Sazerac but A DELICIOUS ONE with Antique.
Pokorny Sazerac
½ oz Antique Pelinkovac
2 oz Rye Whiskey
Tsp Simple Syrup
2 dashes Bitters (Peychaud)
Stir ingredients in a mixing glass
Pour into a rocks or Nick & Nora glass
Garnish with an orange peel
You will definitely love this amaro, even if you are not an amaro person.
Drink up! XO
