Every bartender loves Punt e Mes - this is not sponsored by the way, just a fact - because it has all the bitterness of amaro, but with a softer, vermouth mouthfeel. If you've run out of ideas on how to use it, here's some inspiration!
Punt e Margarita:
This is a recipe I found online on the Food and Wine magazine website so I’m unsure who exactly to credit it to, but credit is definitely due!
45ml (1 ½ oz) blanco tequila
20ml (⅔ oz) Punt e Mes
20ml (⅔ oz) lime juice
15ml (½ oz) agave syrup
Dash orange bitters
Glass: rocks
Garnish: orange wedge
Italian Greyhound:
This is another one I stumbled across online, in the Washington Post actually.
60ml (2 oz) Punt e Mes
90ml (3 oz) grapefruit
Glass: small highball
Garnish: salt rim and grapefruit wedge
My Punt e Mes Cocktail:
40ml (1 ⅓ oz) applejack
20ml (⅔ oz) Punt e Mes
15ml (½ oz) apricot liqueur
2 dashes Angostura bitters
Glass: coupe
Garnish: lemon twist
