Having recently visited Barbados and picked up some Bajan rum, I had to give this another go (for science!) and have to say its superb with Four Square rum.
Hi Simon, Thanks for that. I did have Havana Club in my rums. I've removed it and the recipe is now selecting Veritas, although the "buy direct from Diffords Guide" is still showing Havana Club, but that's fine. Thanks for solving the mystery.
Made with Difford's Falernum and ripe limes I like as is but I can see some may like as 5ml 2:1 or 7.5ml 1:1 sugar syrup or even more. However, better with powdered sugar so I have added 1 spoon of this as an option. Many thanks for your feedback.
Zaya 16 and Falernum No 9 was just too much. Mad flavorful, but taxing. But it's what I had and I'll surely revisit many times to test rum brands. Great ratio.
Really enjoyed this cocktail. However I suspect that the picture you show on this page isn’t the correct picture. Veritas is light coloured, as is falernum.
