THE MURRICANE (A BOURBON-WATERMELON-ELDERFLOWER COCKTAIL)

The Murricane is the nickname the actor Dan Aykroyd supposedly gave to his frequent (and frequently moody) co-star Bill Murray. In this drink, named for the actor, bourbon is shaken with a high-minded mixture of basil, watermelon juice and elderflower liqueur, then flecked with black pepper. Mr. Murray may be funny, but his drink is downright serious.

Add the bourbon, lemon juice and St-Germain, along with ice, and shake vigorously. Strain into a cocktail glass and garnish, if desired, with a sprinkling of black pepper and a wedge of watermelon.

THE MADAME ALMACK'S COCKTAIL

The Madame Almack's is a cocktail from 67 Orange Street in Harlem. The bar's address was also the final address of Almack's Dance Hall, an African-American-owned bar that flourished in the early 1800s. Kali Irwin, the bar's general manager, created this old-school cocktail with a baroque twist. In the Madame Almack's, Bison Grass vodka meets Cynar, an artichoke-flavored aperitif, along with fresh mint and Champagne.

UPSIDE-DOWN MARTINI

This is a martini that's about as wet as it gets, and it happened to be Julia Child's favorite cocktail. It's one part gin to five parts vermouth. "It's a great, crisp summer drink," said Ben Ward, the head bartender at Libation. It's also much closer in spirit to the way dry vermouth is consumed in Europe - as a solo aperitif, rather than a meek cocktail modifier.

Steps:

  • Combine the rum, vermouth, bay leaf reduction and bitters in a mixing glass with ice, and stir thoroughly. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass, then add the bay leaf and several blueberries.
  • To flame the orange peel into the drink, cut a thumb-size wedge of peel from an orange. Holding a lighted match or lighter in one hand, squeeze the orange peel with the other hand over the flame so that the oils ignite as they pass through the flame. (This can require practice; an unflamed twist of orange will also suffice.) Serve.
