Black Rye
0
Earthy root liqueur and rye whiskey, softened with maple syrup and a little bitter spice, then lengthened with club soda over crushed ice. Created by Jason Westplate in 2013.
Jason Westplate's 2013 Black Rye is inspired by root tea, a traditional herbal drink made from sassafras, sarsaparilla, birch bark and assorted wild roots and herbs. The remedy came from Native Americans, who shared it with colonial settlers, and the settlers refined it over generations into something more potent and elaborate.
