Accompani Blue Dorris is a floral liqueur with key botanicals of orris root, pink peppercorn and rose, made by Accompani from the team behind Straightaway Cocktails, bottled at 70 proof (35% ABV).
Accompani is a line of modern liqueurs created to bring new flavors to the home bar, each designed to shine in cocktails. Blue Dorris is its floral expression, and its artful label with blue and purple botanicals hints at the flavors inside.
The liqueur is built around orris root, the fragrant root of the iris, with pink peppercorn and rose, for an elegant, perfumed profile. It earned a medal at the 2021 Bartender Spirits Awards.
Expect violet candies, rose, ripe strawberries and a touch of bay leaf on the nose, a floral, lightly sweet palate with gentle pepper spice, and a clean, perfumed finish.
Blue Dorris is made for cocktails. Use it in place of crème de violette in an Aviation, add a splash to a gin and tonic or sparkling wine for a floral spritz, or stir it into a Martini for a perfumed twist. It also brightens a gin sour or a vodka soda with fresh lemon. Pair it with strawberries, macarons, goat cheese or light summer salads. For home bartenders who like to experiment, it is a beautiful bottle to explore and a thoughtful gift for floral-cocktail lovers. For a simple party drink, mix it with gin, fresh lemon juice and a little simple syrup, shake it hard with ice and top it with sparkling water, or add a few drops to a glass of Champagne for a pretty, fragrant toast.
