I created this little number for Thursday Drink Night: Rumless Tiki. The Initial of the name and the straws in the picture (as well as the above recipe) should give away the famous drink on which it is based. Can you guess?
This looks v-tasty – didn’t get to try it that eve and I just happened to receive some 1800 Blanco in the mail. Did you just use Ango?
That drink looks tasty! i have to say that too;-)
Rick: Yeah, Ango all the way. Bitter truth aromatic or Fee’s whiskey-barrel aged, or other classic aromatic-type bitters will work. The blanco can take an impressive amount of spice to balance!
