About the Greenpoint

Created by Michael McIlroy at Milk & Honey in New York in the mid-2000s, one of a series of riffs on the Brooklyn cocktail named after Brooklyn neighbourhoods. McIlroy's original used Punt e Mes as the vermouth.

Missing something?

  • No Rye Whiskey? Use Bourbon (Softer and sweeter than rye's spice)
  • No Rye Whiskey? Use Jim Beam Bourbon (A bourbon: softer and sweeter than rye)
  • No Yellow Chartreuse? Use Green Chartreuse (Stronger and more herbal, so use a bit less)
  • No Yellow Chartreuse? Use Bénédictine
  • No Sweet Vermouth? Use Punt e Mes (Noticeably more bitter)
  • No Angostura Bitters? Use Peychaud's Bitters (Lighter, with more anise)
