Drink Preparations:

  • Fill a beer mug with ice.
  • Add the ingredients listed above in the order listed.

Bar Liquorice… well what do I write that has already not been written? This place is a corner bar in Federal Hill, that does not feel like your corner bar. Everything about it is well done and the detail put into everything from the ambiance, cocktails and food lets you know every dollar is well spent. Shaun who serves the cocktails, also creates them as well, along with many of the ingredients he uses. Jeff Cahill, owner and chef, takes great pride in the service, ambiance and food served. There is not one detail that is missed.

This signature cocktail was perfect for the Belmont, and beyond. It has a little bite from the Crater Lake Pepper Vodka, that follows up with the robust, spicy taste of Gosling’s Ginger Beer and finishes the drink off by bringing the cocktail to a smooth finish.

This cocktail has many ingredients and they are so well balanced that each one enhances the other. The pickled pepper juice and bitters have an interesting chemistry; first, the pepper juice leaves a little bite and then the taste of the bitters follows up. The taste of the bitters subdues the pepper juice. This cocktail is a very enjoyable cocktail for all seasons.
