This was a proper surprise. I honestly didn't have hopes since I'm both a bit reluctant against both Maraschino liqueur and Rhum Agricole, but in this one they both worked splendidly. The star of the show is the Chartreuse which both controls the Rhum with its peppery notes, and the Maraschino with its herbs. Really delightful cocktail to try whenever you're tired of The Last Word and want something more complex.
Tried this using rhum clement canne bleue and it very nearly got "sinked". I'm 66 and don't have time for not good enough if I don't like move on.
Added 10ml of Simple syrup and acceptable.
I will be honest salt on my chips yes - in my cocktails I just don't get.
With a Margarita I use a Tagin rim.
Sorry but this one is not for me.
Did you use 2 drops of 4:1 saline? Salt can be used to counter sourness/bitterness. It shouldn't really taste "salty" when we're talking about 2 drops of 4:1 saline in 90+ ml of liquid.
I totally agree.....ice and it's condition are a fundamental aspect of serving any drink.Respect for the customer and yourself start with considering every aspect of the end product and if you let yourself cut corners...especially when it's busy...it's a slippery slope...take the time,it's only a few seconds...and at the end of the day everybody wins..slainte
