History

The winning Bacardí Legacy 2017 cocktail, created by Ran Van Ongevalle at The Pharmacy I Knokke, Heist, Belgium.

Clarita is a drink with inspiration from the past, made with knowledge from the present and dreams about the future. Clarita is also a reflection of me, the things I love and the things I stand for, approached in the mindset of the Maestros de Ron.

By precisely blending these ingredients together I wanted to create a family of flavours: high notes, low notes, nutty notes and herbal notes; a true flavour bomb, a true legacy cocktail.

Ran Van Ongevalle, 2017

Review

Dry (at least with the amontillado sherry) we used, Clarita could be enjoyed as an aperitif or digestive.

This drink is pretty damn tasty... Per the video, I did have the Tempus Fugit creme de cacao, but subbed El Dorado 8 for the rum, which enhanced the cacao, but probably didn't lend the degree of contrast and depth that Bacardi 8 would (I could only imagine, for now...). The olive oil was a nice touch, and I used 3 drops of saline, but it wasn't nearly enough... Overall, wonderfully dry and full of exciting fore-shots.
