Sunshine No. 1

Light, fruity and heading a touch to the sweet side, but could well brighten up your day

Superb’ I used Noilly Prat as the dry vermouth very enjoyable. One for the list

Really simple, but really good! Great botanical, herbaceous vermouth suprisingly combining so well with pineapple and rum.

I didn't find this terribly sweet, but it has a nice velvety mouthfeel, with a lot of vermouth flavor. The rum recedes into the background. Generally a nice easy drink.

I used a fairly low quality gold rum, Dolin and homemade pomegranate syrup and didn’t find it particularly sweet. The vermouth dominated with the pineapple in the background. Certainly easy drinking and went down quickly on a hot night. Maybe could do with some bitters or something (maybe a different garnish?) to add a little bit more dimension.

We used half gold rum and half 151 Demerara rum to tone back the sweetness. Still a bit sweet, but wonderful on a warm afternoon.
