ABOUT
This is a tiki cocktail from the 1970s that is primarily made with rum, but can be made with gin. I stumbled across this in my copy of “Smuggler’s Cove.” My partner loves gin drinks so I had to reshake it for him with gin. This should be flash blended, but I chose to whip shake with some pebble ice. Cheers y’all!
