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

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.
