I am glad that you enjoyed it.
...Karen, thank you. I am glad that you enjoyed it. <br /><br />Eric, thank you as well. What is quite hilarious about your comment on the Recoleta is that I wrote that portion of the write up for the LUPEC Seattle blog for one of our "homework assignment" a year and a half ago. It was a fine drink and did serve as my inspiration, but when I found the IBF Pick-Me-Up my attention was diverted. <br /><br />The proportions then weren't listed on the menu, but I would assume tjat after creating the honey infusion you could start with the proportions for a French 75 and work from there.

For what it's worth, I was able to find mention of the Recoleta on LUPEC Seattle's blog (link below), which lists the other ingredients as just maté honey (I'm guessing an infusion?), grapefruit juice, and grapefruit bitters. No word on proportions, but I'm certain you could futz with it until you found an approximation. :)<br /><br />Cheers!<br /><br />—Eric<br /><br />http://lupecseattle.blogspot.com/2010/07/june-meeting-sambar.htmlEric Lawrence Jeffushttp://www.twitter.com/orpheumnoreply@blogger.com
