The Pig & Fig
Last week I made bacon-infused bourbon with this cocktail in mind - the Pig & Fig.
Originating from Boston, this sublime drink combines the savory and smokey flavors of bacon with a citrus zest and spicy sweetness of figs.
You’ll need:
- Bacon-infused Bourbon
- Sweet Vermouth
- Fig Puree
- Orange Bitters
- Orange & Bacon Salt to garnish
In the spirit of dog-fooding, all alcoholic ingredients were delivered in under an hour by Minibar.
To make, shake all of the ingredients with ice and strain. Garnish with the bacon salt on the rim, and an orange twist. If you are feeling especially porky, you can also use a stick of bacon here.
Awesome!
