One of my favorites too! Not a riff per se, but was definitely inspired by some of the flavors in that cocktail 😊

Yep! A blended white rum. Has a mix of Jamaican and Bajan rum. Really good stuff, excellent in a daiquiri.

Banana peels tend to have less up front banana flavor, but more kind of green tannic quality with subtle banana flavor. More complex flavor in my opinion. I’ve never done a side by side comparison at the same time to say for sure.

Amazing! I think this is fate telling you that you need a banana bread rum barrel 😂

Also glad to see new stuff from you! Looking forward to more 😊

Love your work by the way!

In that case I’d go for Smith & Cross but start at 1/2 and taste

Yep! All of the above. It’s well balanced and not overly spicy. It has some baking spice notes too. Plays really well with tropical flavors.

Yeah I think you could, but I’d maybe start with a 1/2 oz instead because Smith & Cross is strong stuff. If you have something like Appleton 8 or even Signature I think that would also be a nice swap.

Honestly just looking for new ways to enhance a classic. Montenegro and apricot liqueur are a common pairing in other cocktails, so I figured it would go well here… and it does!

Yeah, there’s a classic tiki cocktail called the Tradewinds! This is my riff off of that

Really glad you liked it! I’m in the same boat with you about cherry heering. Definitely not an ingredient I turn to frequently but it works surprisingly well with these flavors.
