Giorgi’s Poem
Fred Flynn (above) has been the spirits director and head barman at the acclaimed Wilmington restaurant manna since early 2019.
His creation for late spring is a drink he calls Giorgi’s Poem: “I love the smokiness and acidity of this drink. It’s very playful and keeps your tongue on its toes.”
Giorgi’s Poem:
1.5 ounces Sombra mezcal
.75 ounce Luxardo Cherry liqueur
.75 ounce Yellow Chartreuse
.5 ounce fresh lime juice
Stir all ingredients over rocks, then strain into a coupe or martini glass and serve with a charred lime wheel.
