Why It Works
- Date molasses is less sweet and more complex in flavor than simple syrup.
- Amontillado sherry's nutty and dry characteristics complement the rich dates.
Date molasses, which is made of nothing but dates, is your secret ingredient to a rich, nutty fall cocktail in this riff on the Martinez.
