What could be better than a Millionaire? The answer is simple – a Billionaire. This is the upgraded take on the classic prohibition era cocktail by the well-known New York Employees Only bar crew and it truly deserved to be “adjusted for inflation” to become a Billionaire.

A complex oak and nut flavour profile of the bourbon lays a solid foundation for the drink blending seamlessly with the bittersweet orange notes of Campari. Lemon juice adds a refreshing touch with a bit of balance provided by the simple syrup. So far so good, but the stroke of genius comes from the custom blended bitters containing absinthe, green chartreuse, Peychaud’s and angostura bitters. This particular combination elevates the cocktail to the next level and introduces an indescribable level of complexity, blending so many botanicals together that it creates something completely new and delicious.

Billionaire is a tasty booze filled cocktail any cocktail lover should absolutely try, probably way more than once.
