L'Etranger

chartreuse, dark rum & phallernum with a lemon twist.

Albert Camus, French author of L'Etranger ("The Stranger") once said, "In the depth of winter I finally learned that there was in me an invincible summer.”

Drink this cocktail any day in February, and you’ll feel an invincible summer inside, too. This cocktail is made with lots and lots of chartreuse, that herby, fragrant French liqueur churned out by monks in the Chartreuse mountains of the French alps. It’s really high proof, so sip with respect as you get to know this foreign cocktail.



Here, Al lights up a smoke after savoring one of these.... A sante!
