A great sharing cocktail that will get everyone sipping – created by cocktail consultant Shannon Mustipher who is a founding member of the Cane Club Collective, which fosters knowledge and appreciation for rum through educational seminars for the consumer and trade.
Recommended spirits:
Batavia Arrack van Oosten
Lemorton Pommeau de Normandie
Rothman & Winter Orchard Pear Liqueur
Ingredients
250ml aged Batavia arrack
100ml Calvados
50ml pear liqueur
125ml ginger syrup
100ml fresh lemon juice
For the garnish:
Citrus wheels
Edible flowers
Method
Combine all ingredients in a non-reactive container and stir to mix. Decant over ice into a Tiki bowl or serving vessel of your choice. Serve with straws and garnish with citrus wheels and edible flowers.
Many Tiki bowls include a minibowl for a flame garnish, safely away from the body of the drink.
Top with a scant amount of 151-proof rum or soak a sugar cube, and carefully ignite before serving. Always blow out the flame before drinking and take all appropriate cautions when working with open flame.
