ABOUT
She’s bitter, she’s funky, she’s back for round two. I recently received some booze mail from Tempus Fugit Spirits (@tempus_fugit_spirits) and wanted to make something because I just love their stuff (this is not an ad!). This one is my riff on the Trinidad Sour. It’s one of those drinks that looks like it shouldn’t work, but it seriously does. Instead of the usual rye, I went with funky Jamaican rum and added banana liqueur for a tropical twist that still plays well with the bitters and orgeat. Serve in a coupe or over a rock. Cheers y’all!
