The Devil’s Greeting

The flavor of this drink is meant to offer a seductive lure with a hint of smoke or charcoal – as if a temptation from hell. I wanted it to be inviting, as if offered by the Devil as he welcomes you to hell. I imagined The Devil’s Greeting would be as inviting, convincing the drinker that they too have fallen into the right place.

Like a greeting from the lord of darkness, one would sip this cocktail with trepidation, eventually allowing themselves to be taken by the once most beautiful angel.

The Devil’s Greeting

A tempting concoction that convinces the drinker that they have fallen into the right place.
