Hey Difford’s Guys, nothing to do with this mix (one of my favorites’ though): love the new layout of your website. Quite trendy and very professional, as always. Keep going.

Great cocktail. I made it with aged and white Rhum Agricole from Guadeloupe. This gives very authentic flavors. Then, I agree lime zest twist fits better.

Today is Napoleon’s death birthday. Just 200 years ago. What about a mix with Napoleon mandarine liqueur?

Great cocktail. I used the Rhum JM Joyau Macouba Édition Limitée from Martinique. Fits better with Pierre Ferrand orange Curaçao to my liking. Was wondering whether shaking would not be more appropriate.

Great cocktail. The taste highly depends on the ingredients, as for most cocktails. It’ even more so for the Creole Cosmo as the shrubb might be quite different from one place/producer to another. In my first version of this cocktail, I used the Clement Canne Bleue Edition 2017 and the Karukera (Longueteau) shrubb orange liqueur. The result was too sour, nearly acidic to my taste. In my second version, I added 2.5 ml sugar cane sirup. The result was far much better.

Dry Curaçao is a perfectly fine substitute for the shrubb here. I know shrubb can be quite hard to find in many areas.

Hi Chaz,
Agree. You might know https://www.whisky.fr/catalogsearch/result/?q=schrub. Not a large choice but good products at reasonable prices. They deliver throughout Europe I think.

Excellent cocktail. I made it using white Carribean rhum (Bologne 40°) and Bombay Sapphire East Gin. To my taste, I found it has more character and flavour than the original recipe.
