After making a new batch of house-made orgeat at the I.O., I thought of a crazy idea. Why not try a pistachio syrup? I followed the same formula as per the orgeat. The result was a very thick,rich syrup that I gave good hopes. I wanted to pair the syrup with a rum. The first cocktail that came to mind was the Cameron's Kick. I followed the recipes to the T replacing rum for whiskey, lime for lemon and pistachio syrup for orgeat. A dash of Angostura bitters on top and we have it.
