We're diving down into the cocktail depths once again to make three variations on a beloved classic cocktail. Since the popularity of cocktails skyrocketed, bartenders have been taking old obscure drinks and recreating them. The problem with old cocktails though is that they catered to an audience whose culinary tastes were much different than the modern drinker. So, these enterprising bartenders took those classic and reformulated them for the modern pallet. Many Many bar programs have been based on this simple and winning solution and as such have revived some really problematic classics into very nice drinks. So today, we're going to make three different versions of the Scofflaw cocktail. The Original, A modern interpretation commonly used and then the Death And Company version which is a ground up rebuild. Which one is best? Only one way to find out!

Also, NYC Bartender Brian Tasch (formerly of Pouring Ribbons) has written a fantastic article on this which is on our website so here's a link for those of you so inclined. Also be sure to check out Brian's Blog Corpse Revived for some amazing deep dives into cocktail technique and theory. Here’s a link: https://www.corpserevived.com
