Signature Cocktail: Psycho Killer

Comes from the famous mixologist Jillian Vose of New York City’s famed Irish bar, The Dead Rabbit. This is probably not a cocktail most people will be able to make with the booze they have on hand, but it is a delicious complex cocktail that is worth a trip to the liquor store.  

Ingredients:

• 2 ounces Irish whiskey (The Dead Rabbitt uses Redbreast 12-year-old)
• 3/4 ounce cocoa nib-infused Campari*
• 1/2 ounce Marie Brizard white creme de cacao
• 1/2 ounce Banana Liqueur  Giffard Banane du Brésil
• 2 dashes absinthe

Directions:

• Add the Irish whiskey, cocoa nib–infused Campari, white creme de cacao, banana liqueur and absinthe into a mixing glass with ice. 
• Stir until well-chilled.
• Strain into a Nick & Nora glass.
