SUNSET AT GOWANUS cocktail

Seemingly effervescent aged rum with an herbal citric finish. Beautiful, well balanced libation! Reorder! Alex Day 2008. Comes in at 27% ABV.

MIXING NOTES: Use the Santa Teresa rum for best flavor profile. Laird’s Bonded is best here. Gotta use Yellow Chartreuse. Maple syrup Very Dark (used to be called Grade B) should be used. Use very ripe limes to get the fizz phenomenon.
