How often do you actually use the peachy-colored sauce packets from Chinese takeout? This recipe, from Jesse Card, general manager of Bit House Saloon in Portland, Oregon, goes “full tiki-style,” with about a packet of duck sauce per cocktail. It will give you plenty of reason to use every last one.
“I love the way that pineapple and ginger are natural complements to the duck sauce,” says Card. “But the big caraway and anise notes from the aquavit really carry the drink in a whole new direction. I named it after my favorite combo plate at my local Chinese haunt.”
