My lovely bride (for nearly 25 years) and I are sitting here in Paris, missing our life in New Orleans (where we first met at Lafitte’s Blacksmith Shop and later lived) enjoying our take— a 50-50 Obituary : gin to vermouth at 1:1 with a dash of Ricard. Outstanding !
Plantation 3-Star is my go-to rum, too. My favorite ratio is 12:6:1, the sugar being replaced by agave syrup, which is Mexican, I know, but it surely works with limes in Margaritas, so it’s a natural, in my opinion. We like them (both Margs and Daqs) sour, so sweeten to taste, but 3-Star is great!
