The name and color of this cocktail may bring to mind sunlight playing on the East River (or, if you prefer, the arguably more romantic Gowanus Canal). Whatever it evokes, it’s delicious — a bold but balanced blend of botanical flavors from floral gin, gentian liqueur and Aperol. —Rosie Schaap

Julia Frakes

Salers Apéritif, Suze (Saveur D'Autrefois), Cascadia American Bitter Liqueur, St. George Bruto Americano, Michelberger Forest Herbal Liqueur, Bonal Gentiane-Quina, Walcher Aperitivo Rondó Spritz, and Bittermens Amère Sauvage. Bigallet China-China, Nonino L'Aperitivo, and Cocchi Americano also contain gentian, but are probably lessideal for the gentian component in this recipe. Hope this helps!

J

Can you suggest some gentian liqueurs?

Mark

Suze.

1/2 oz aperol according to the recipe in the NYT magazine.

Where is the Aperol? Not in ingredient list. Still, very nice article and lovely photos.

Emily Weinstein, Cooking Editor

1/2 ounce Aperol. Apologies for that omission — the Aperol should be showing in the ingredients list now.

Julia Frakes

I think it appeared in a later online iteration of the recipe. On that note, is Forthave Spirits Red Aperitivo an acceptable substitute for Aperol in this recipe?
