ABOUT
This cocktail was created by Drew Johnson (@cheekydees) and I found it via his mentee, Josh Leos (@irrelevantbartender) who works at Noble Experiment (San Diego, CA). This one follows the typical daiquiri template, but uses a split base of amari. It’s basically a daiquiri digestiff that’s bitter and delicious. Cheers y’all!
