Eric Alperin, The Varnish
A split base of Jamaican rum and rye whiskey feature in this Sazerac-esque drink by Eric Alperin of The Varnish bar. The first thing you'll notice as you raise the glass are notes of bright citrus and anise, closely followed by rich and funky tropical fruit on the nose courtesy of the Jamaican rum.
INGREDIENTS
- 1 brown sugar cube
- 2 dashes orange bitters
- 1 barspoon soda water
- 1 oz (30 ml) rye whiskey
- 1 oz (30 ml) Jamaican rum
- absinthe, rinse
