More from the Sour family.
Hemingway Daiquiri
A Daiquiri stripped of sugar and cut with grapefruit and maraschino. Built for a regular who liked them cold, dry, and doubled.
Jungle Bird
Dark rum and pineapple with a Campari spine — tropical, then suddenly bitter. The tiki drink for people who think they hate tiki.
Mai Tai
Aged Jamaican rum, lime, curaçao, and orgeat over crushed ice. The 1944 spec — no juice cocktail, no umbrella.
