Nui Nui

Ingredients

  • 2 ounces aged rum, or an equal-parts blend of Demerara rum, Jamaican rum and cachaça
  • 1 ounce freshly squeezed orange juice
  • 3/4 ounce cinnamon syrup, preferably BG Reynolds
  • 3/4 ounce lime juice
  • 1/4 ounce vanilla syrup, preferably BG Reynolds
  • 1/4 ounce allspice dram, preferably St. Elizabeth

Instructions

Shake and strain over crushed ice

Verdict

Tropical and delicious. You probably do need the crushed (I used normal ice cubes) ice because without it, it gets a bit thick. I put some nutmeg on top, which worked well. The orange juice really comes through here. In many other cocktails it gets lost.

Score

6/10

Notes
