PICON PUNCH
This 19th-century cocktail originated in Marseille, France, by way of Bakersfield, California, where it was regularly prepared for the local Basque population. The main ingredient, a bitter French digestive called Amer Picon, is unfortunately no longer commercially available in the United States. But that didn't stop the bar team at San Francisco's 15 Romolo.
