Prince of Wales

Ingredients

  • 1 wedge pineapple
  • 60 ml rye
  • 5 ml maraschino
  • 5 ml simple syrup
  • 1 lemon peel
  • 1 dash angostura bitters
  • Champagne to top (presumably something like 30ml)

Instructions

  • Muddle pineapple in shaker
  • Add everything except the champagne to the shaker
  • Shake with ice and strain
  • Top up with champagne

Verdict

Ok, but not great. The rye stands out, and while rye is tasty, something like cognac might have been a better for the fruit. An ok sipper. Most things are lost. You could have done with just rye, champagne and pineapple. It's like a fruitier whiskey sour, minus the egg white.

Score

5/10
