Japanese Cocktail

The Story
This week’s cocktail features a common tiki element without the complexity of the majority of tiki drinks. Orgeat is a syrup made from almonds and sugar. It’s possible to make it at home, but we recommend getting a nice bottle from the store.
The Japanese Cocktail is an old cocktail and very simple. We found it in the book, “3-Ingredient Cocktails” by Robert Simonson (NYT cocktail writer).

2 oz Cognac
½ oz Orgeat
2 dashes Angostura Bitters
Preparation
Add all ingredients to a mixing glass
Add ice and stir for 30 seconds
