History:

The Canadian Bacardí Legacy 2018 winning cocktail, created by Sabrina Mailhot at The Coldroom in Montreal.

Sabrina Mailhot says of her drink, "Séquito is Spanish for 'entourage' – the group of people that surround us, or in this case, community and family. The drink is a homage to the community of bartenders I am now fortunate to call friends. After watching my mentors go through their 'Legacy' experience, I thought now was the perfect occasion to share my story and help my community grow to become part of the BACARDÍ family."

Made a pair of these last night. It's a great post-dinner drink, perhaps even a 'dessert daiquiri'. The banana liqueur and the orange juice seems to add some welcome viscosity.

Our present image was supplied by Bacardi. I've just made and mine is also not nearly so dark red.
