We cooked a bunch of Trinidadian food last night for a party and so I wanted to do something rum-based and citrusy to compliment the spicy main (doubles, if you’re curious). This fit the bill! Super bright and flavorful. It’s supposed be served in a tall, clear glass with a red sherry floated, but I only had a lighter sherry and wanted to use my pineapple glasses ¯_(ツ)_/¯ This recipe is from Smuggler’s Cove.

  • 1 ½ oz lemon juice
  • 1 ½ oz orange juice
  • ½ oz orgeat
  • 1 oz pisco
  • ½ oz gin
  • 2 oz blended lightly-aged rum
  • ½ oz oloroso sherry
  • 1 mint sprig

Flash blend all ingredients except the sherry and mint with 12oz crushed ice. Pour into a Zombie glass or Fug Cutter mug and float the sherry, then garnish with a mint sprig.

    I always look for Valencia, but couldn’t find them this time! So I had to settle for navel here, and it was ok, we all survived 😂
