Has anyone tried to recreate this drink? I tried it several times, but none of them taste like the ones served in dcp. My homemade version has a overwhelming tannins from the rum or cucumber that can't be balanced. For cucumbers, I used English cucumber and American cucumbers.

Remove about half the peal before blending and straining the cucumbers to avid some of the tannins. I usually also switch the ratios for the rum vs rum liqeur as i find it lacks sweetness

I make mine with 45mL of the Ultimate Mai Tai rumblend (equal ratios of Plantation OFTD, Xaymaca, Smith&Cross, Appleton 8 y/o) and some tiki bitters or chocolate bitters. When having a sweet tooth, I sometimes add a 20 mL of dark creme de cacao or homemade banana liqueur absolutely delicious!

Thanks, can you batch this in an airtight bottle indefinitely since there are no juices? Would it taste the same in 6 months?

All wines and fortified wines oxidize quite rapidly after exposure to air. Probably best to vacuum and store in fridge or leave out the wine and add that later.

SO sooo crushable. I made it with Boomsma Cloosterlikeur as a sub for GC. As this is lower in ABV I reduced the amount of coconut syrup and added some Wray & Nephew for some func.
• 60 mL Boomsma Cloosterlikeur
• 15 mL Wray & Nephew Overproof rum
• 10 mL coconut syrup
• 15 mL lime juice
• 45 mL pineapple juice

Although it is less complex and less abv, it is a very good and cheap alternative for Green Chartreuse. With the low price (€14) point in the Netherlands, this is a very nice sub allowing me to make crushable GC cocktails like the Pina Verde without guilt.

Quite dry and tart so I adapted it to the following with great results:
• 1 1/4 oz (37.5 mL) Four roses bourbon
• 1 oz (30 mL) Montenegro amaro
• 1 oz (30 mL) Aperol
• 2/3 oz (20 mL) Lemon juice
• 3 drops of 20% saline solution
