Serve in a Coupe glass
1 1⁄2 oz | Caribbean blended rum aged 3-5 years |
3⁄4 oz | Cointreau triple sec liqueur |
3⁄4 oz | Lemon juice (freshly squeezed) |
2 drop | Saline solution 4:1 (20g sea salt to 80g water) |
Best described as a "Rum Sidecar", like the classic Sidecar this cocktail is a tad on the sour side unless sipped through sugared rim. Altogether a better drink if you forgo the rim and add 2.5ml (half a barspoon) sugar syrup (2:1) so the balance is properly integrated.
Adapted from a recipe created by Jeff "Beachbum" Berry originally using gold Bajan rum this features in his 2010 book Beachbum Berry Remixed: A Gallery of Tiki Drinks.
