History:
Adapted from a recipe created by Jeff "Beachbum" Berry originally using gold Bajan rum this features in his 2010 book Beachbum Berry Remixed: A Gallery of Tiki Drinks.
Review:
Best described as a "Rum Sidecar", like the classic Sidecar , this cocktail is a tad on the sour side unless sipped through a sugared rim. Altogether a better drink if you forgo the rim and add 2.5ml (half a barspoon) sugar syrup (2:1) so the balance is properly integrated.
