PIÑATA

3 oz pineapple juice
1 oz lemon juice
¼ oz SC demerara syrup
1 oz ginger liqueur
½ oz St. Elizabeth allspice dram
1 oz Black Blended Rum ❺
1 oz Blended Lightly Aged Rum ❷

Garnish: grated nutmeg
Method: Add all the ingredients to a drink mixer tin. Fill with 12 ounces of crushed ice and 4 to 6 agitator cubes. Flash blend and open pour into a hollowed-out pineapple. Garnish with grated nutmeg.

A real job to hollow out the pineapple, but the fun vessel makes it worth it! Also no harm in throwing an extra straw in there for a party of two who won't mind sharing.

CENTER OF THE GALAXY

½ oz lime juice
½ oz demerara syrup
½ oz honey syrup
½ oz raspberry liqueur
2 oz Blended Aged Rum ❸
pinch of grated cinnamon

Garnish: raspberries, lime wheel
Method: Combine all the ingredients in a cocktail shaker filled with cracked or cubed ice. Shake and double-strain into a chilled coupe. Float a lime wheel in the center of the drink and rest a raspberry in the center.

Named after an ester discovered in a dust ball scanned by the Max Planck Institute of Radio Astronomy in 2009, which smells of rum and gives raspberries their taste! Spec is by Martin Cate, Smuggler's Cove p121.

EL DRAQUE

5 mint leaves
¾ oz demerara syrup
¾ oz lime juice
2 oz Pot Still Aged Cachaça

Garnish: lime wheel
Method: muddle the mint with the syrup and lime juice in a cocktail shaker. Add the cachaça and cracked or cubed ice. Shake and double-strain into a chilled coupe. Garnish with a lime wheel speared on a pirate sword cocktail pick.

Allegedly the favored drink of Sir Francis Drake, this cocktail is a nod to the famous pirate. When I took the photo I didn't have a sword cocktail pick so I used a Surfside Sips bone pick which seemed fitting. This version comes from Smuggler's Cove page 163, which feels like a cross between a Mojito and Caipirinha.

KINGSTON SOUND SYSTEM

¾ oz lime juice
½ oz pineapple juice
1 barspoon demerara syrup
½ oz Suze
1 oz aged Pot Still Rum
½ oz overproof Pot Still Unaged Rum

Garnish: pineapple frond, lime wheel
Method: Combine all ingredients in a shaker with ice and shake. Strain over a big rock and garnish.

Pineapple is a substitute for the original ingredient called soursop. Since that's hard to track down, I just stick with pineapple and added a barspoon of syrup to the recipe. I also subbed the spec's blend of aged pot still and OP unaged pot still by using Doctor Bird OP, which combines the two in one delicious bottle.

The original spec is by Shannon Mustipher and appears in her book Tiki: Modern Tropical Cocktails.

JUNGLE BIRD

2 oz pineapple juice
½ oz lime juice
½ oz demerara syrup
¾ oz Campari
1½ oz Black Blended Rum ❺

Garnish: pineapple frond
Method: Add all the ingredients to a drink mixer tin. Fill with 4-6 agitator cubes. Flash blend and pour with gated finish into a Collins or highball glass and add garnish.

No cocktail feed is complete without one of the titans of tiki, the Jungle Bird! Always a crowd pleaser with its bitter-but-sweet balance, and a garnish sure to turn heads as it gets placed in front of you. This spec comes from Smuggler's Cove, page 96.

SAZERAC

rinse glass with absinthe
3 dashes Peychauds bitters
¼ oz demerara syrup
2 oz Sazerac rye

Garnish: lemon peel
Method: Use an atomizer to rinse your serving glass with absinthe. Combine the remaining ingredients in a stirring glass with ice and stir. Strain into the glass, express lemon peel, and use as garnish.

Another boozy stir for a cold winter night. This version of the legendary cocktail comes from the book Cure: New Orleans drinks and how to mix 'em, page 29. I finally found an affordable bottle of Sazerac in Germany and thought the titular cocktail was the logical test pilot. For the photo I also tested a new lighting setup. Not 100% happy with it, but you gotta start somewhere.

Early Bird

½ oz lemon juice
1 oz pineapple juice
¼ oz simple syrup
¼ oz coffee liqueur
½ oz coffee-infused Campari*
1 oz Jamaican Blended Aged Rum ❸

Garnish: pineapple frond, coffee beans
Method: Combine all ingredients in a shaker with ice and shake. Double strain over a big rock and garnish.

A really lovely jungle bird riff when you need a pick-me-up in the afternoon. A little caffeinated, a little boozy! The coffee-infused Campari is really delightful on its own and absolutely stands out in this spec. First seen from IG subtletiki.

* coffee-infused Campari: add whole beans to Campari in a jar and let sit 12-48 hours depending on how strong you want the infusion. I go all the way. Strain and discard beans; the Campari is still shelf stable.
