Rickhouse Launches Summer Cocktail Menu by Camper English

Rickhouse Launches Summer Cocktail Menu

"Starting this July, Rickhouse in San Francisco will offer a summer drink menu, because apparently the fifty cocktails on the regular menu are all seasonally inappropriate. (I kid!)

The regular menu isn't online, so those of you reading from out of town an get a glimpse of how it looks with its tiki bar-reminiscent descriptors (and low prices).
Note: Root beer and absinthe! Again!
Rickhouse Summer Cocktail Menu
Ginger’s Trois  $8
It’s as light and effervescent as the twinkle of a clouds silver lining.  Snappy and sparkling, this bubbly cocktail provides every minty answer you desire, and all without the trouble of having to ask a single question.
Plymouth Gin, Sparkling Wine, Fresh Lime, Fresh Mint, Fresh Ginger and Bitters
Cherry Blossom Cobbler  $8
From the depths of the Orient, comes this sultry and seductive tigress that is heart-bent on sending a shock through your fingers and a chill up your spine.  We insist you proceed with caution, lest you lose yourself within its snowy abyss.
Yamazaki 12 year, Organic Cherry Blossom Jam, Fresh Lemon Juice and Seasonal Fruit
Sutter Street Swizzle  $10
Brazen and uninhibited, this beverage makes no apologies for its chilly disposition. For alas, even within the great depths of the Amazon will you find nothing quite as alluring and enticing as the subtle, yet untamed flavors of this exotic spiced beverage.
Cachaca, Falernum, Pineapple Gomme, Fresh Ginger, Fresh Lime Juice and Bitters
The Big Dig  $8
A delectable and enterprising adventure that is attractively saturated in the sweet taste of lost inhibitions.  Seasonal berries and sarsparilla sweetness unite to form an appealing combination that is one part carbonated fizz and one part summer bliss.
Beefeater Gin, Fresh Lemon Juice, Organic Raspberries, Artisanal Root Beer and a Dash of Absinthe
High-Plains Drifter  $8
Earthy and mean, this glass of bad attitude is known for providing courage to the brave, and a kick in the pants to the timid.  It’s just the curly wolf to have in your corner when you’re going through the mill and there’s trouble in the air.
Rye Whiskey, Sweet Vermouth, Amaro Nonino and Celery Bitters
Berry O’Brien  $8
A drink that is as attractive to the ladies, as it is suitable for a diplomat.  Do not let its innocent flavor fool you, for this drink is precisely the right combination of Whiskey served tall with just a dash of Irish charm.
Jameson Irish Whiskey, Fresh Blackberries, Fresh Lemon Juice, Ginger Beer and Bitters"

Hayviation a Twist on a Classic

Hayviation

by Michael Dietsch on April 10, 2010 · 1 comment
A simple variant on the classic Aviation, using Hayman’s Old Tom gin. I chose the Hayman’s because I have a problem with the Aviation; I think it’s just a touch out of balance on my palate, with the lemon juice so heavy and the sweetening agents so light. (However, I know that if you bump up the maraschino and violet liqueur, you’re going to get a drink that’s just nasty.) Hayman’s is only mildly sweet, as far as Old Toms go, apparently, so I thought I’d try it. I like it.
