History

Created in 2018 for Bacardí Legacy 2018 winning cocktail by Ronnaporn Kanivichaporn at Backstage Cocktail Bar in Bangkok, Thailand.

Pink Me Up was born out of the lack of 'pick me up' cocktails in the rum category; unlike vodka's Bloody Mary, or gin's Corpse Reviver No.2 nothing stood out for rum. By combining Bacardí Cart Blanca rum, fresh tomato and Thai sweet basil, I wanted to create a surprisingly refreshing and balanced cocktail that would cheer up anyone's day.

If you are in love with Bloody Marys, this is like the happy nephew. Very refreshing, in a way of a Daiquiri, but a balance completely differetn. I would recommend it for breakfasts. This one is the reason why I love to make cocktails: being absolutly surprised by a flavor.

This is delicious and very refreshing! Basil and cherry tomatoes came from a friend's garden; unclear what type of basil other than both it and the tomatoes were picked fresh!

Used Plantation 3 Star and opted for pickle brine over olive as it felt brighter. Borderline savory cocktail. Probably could pare the orgeat to 1/4 so I didn't need 2 jiggers but a logistical quibble.

Thai sweet basil or Genovese sweet basil? They’re both good in this cocktail, the Thai basil giving that aniseedy twist, the Genovese a Mediterranean balance.
