Antoine Special Ingredients


Antoine Special Instructions

Cocktails are a great way to unwind and relax after a long day. Whether you're hosting a party or simply enjoying a quiet night at home, mixing up a delicious cocktail can be a fun and creative way to lift your spirits. One cocktail that never fails to impress is the Antoine Special. This unique concoction is flavorful, refreshing, and sure to be a hit at any gathering. To make the Antoine Special, start by muddling fresh mint leaves at the bottom of a glass. Muddling gently releases the flavors and aromas of the mint, adding a refreshing element to the drink. Next, add a dash of lime juice for a citrusy twist. The acidity of the lime juice helps to balance out the sweetness of the other ingredients. Now it's time to add the star of the show - rum! Choose a high-quality white rum for the best results. The rum adds depth and complexity to the cocktail, giving it a rich and smooth finish. Add a generous amount of rum to your glass, depending on your personal preference. To sweeten things up, add a splash of grenadine syrup. This syrup not only adds a vibrant red color to the cocktail but also gives it a subtly sweet and fruity flavor. Lastly, top off the drink with some soda water for a light and fizzy finish. Once you've added all the ingredients, give your cocktail a good stir to combine the flavors. You can garnish your Antoine Special with a sprig of fresh mint or a wedge of lime for an added touch of elegance. Serve the cocktail over ice and enjoy the refreshing, tropical flavors of the Antoine Special. The Antoine Special is a cocktail that is sure to impress your friends and family. With its unique combination of flavors and vibrant appearance, it's the perfect drink to serve at any occasion. So why not give it a try and elevate your cocktail game with the Antoine Special? Cheers!


Best served in a Red Wine Glass.

The Antoine Special cocktail is believed to have been created by Antoine Peychaud, a pharmacist from New Orleans who was known for his love of mixing drinks.

To make an Antoine Special cocktail, you'll need:

- 2 oz cognac

- 1/2 oz Cointreau

- 1/4 oz maraschino liqueur

- Dash of Peychaud's Bitters

Simply combine all the ingredients in a shaker with ice and shake well. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass and garnish with an orange twist for an extra touch of sophistication.

The result is a smooth and sophisticated drink that perfectly balances the rich flavors of cognac with the citrusy notes of Cointreau and the subtle sweetness of maraschino liqueur. The dash of Peychaud's Bitters adds depth and complexity to this already exquisite blend, making it truly unforgettable.

Whether you're sipping on an Antoine Special at a fancy cocktail bar or mixing one up at home for a special occasion, this classic French delight is sure to impress even the most discerning palate. So raise your glass to tradition and enjoy every sip of this timeless masterpiece!
