REPUTATION

While Gabelick acknowledged that the drink is a "niche liquor", selling a comparatively small number of cases annually, it has gained increased relevance among bartenders, bikers, and Chicago's southside community where Gabelick notes that it has become "a rite of passage". The satirist John Hodgman has also adopted the drink in his stage show, offering shots to his audience. In an interview with Gothamist blog Chicagoist, John Hodgman said Jeppson's Malört "tastes like pencil shavings and heartbreak."

↳ Song: "Gus Creates a Bespoke Cocktail, Part 2" by "Gus B...
Handy wasn't able to transcribe the cocktails in Part 2, so I did my best attempt to record Gus's Bespoke Cocktails:

For dadavinci:
Mellow Corn Straight Corn Whiskey bottled in bond (or else moonshine)
Bénédictine
(an Italian "Burgundy"?? searches seem to point to Italicus Rosolio Di Bergamotto? A bergamot liqueur)
Japanese "Pocari Sweat" (an electrolyte drink)
mix in a large glass with a crack in it

no proportions given - "don't be a fussbudget"

For Brother Cleve (Robert Toomey):
root beer bitters, muddled with soda
Smith & Cross Jamaican rum
1/2 oz Rittenhouse Rye

Listener dale is kinda oblique about it, but you could always ask him about CB goings-on nowadays.

An Archive relisten clarified these latter recipes:

"I used Italicus, the bergamot aperitif" - yep, that is what Gus said but wasn't in my memory bank at the time. I've seen the clear, bright aqua bottle at liquor stores:
www.astorwines.com...

For Brother Cleve's cocktail, the vial of root beer bitters is muddled with *sugar* (duh, makes better sense), then measure 2 1/2 oz high proof Jamaican rum (AND a splash of Smith & Cross? To add further flavor to plain rum?) and 1/2 oz Rittenhouse Rye. Add ice, and steer it up, like Bob Marley...
