The best cocktail I had was on vacation in Edinburgh at a basement bar called Hoot the Redeemer. It was called Why You Cross. Aside from being unGoogleable, it doesn't appear on their website. The only evidence I have of it is a picture I took and sent to a cocktail buff friend. All it has is the ingredients, not the amounts or how to construct it. It has:

Woodford Reserve Bourbon

Cross Brew

Punt e Mes

Frenet Branca

White Chocolate

Orange Bitters

It appears to be in a rocks glass.

Your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to recreate this. You will be handsomely rewarded (with a fantastic cocktail) if you succeed.
