New Brooklyn

<30%alc.
>4oz.
 

AH ! Just came back from NYC and have finished my detox week (yes, NYC broke me, 2 weeks of constant cocktail exploration, observation and fun. not even a day of rest. NYC, I love You !).
Time to get back on one’s feet !
I took a week to explore new ingredients, seed some new amazing plants, talk with people and read few recipe books.
And I came to an amazing recipe called New York.
This cocktail is pretty interesting but way to unballanced and lack of richness to me.
So at the end, here is what I came with, another version of the drink, way less sour, sweeter with a pinch of Marascino (love that old fashioned taste, used as a dash) and some bitters to reinforce scents.
Finally, New Brooklyn sounded to me fitted as a way to see the New NYC
