Sol Y Sombra

Ingredients

  • 1.5 oz gold Puerto Rican rum
  • 0.75 Oz dark Jamaican rum
  • 0.5 Oz apricot brandy
  • 2 oz pineapple juice
  • 0.5 Oz lime juice
  • 2 dashes Angostura bitters

Instructions

Shake and dump

Verdict

Fruity, mixed, and balanced. All flavors are present, yet none of them dominate. You might think that you'd need some extra sugar, but you don't. Really strong. All the potions of the Caribbean one are really strong. The old ones must have drunk more heavily than us. The apricot and pineapple are present. The rums can't be distinguished from each other. I used bacardi 8 and Myers.

Score

4/10

Notes

Glassware

Ideally a hollowed out pineapple, but if you don't have one, use a highball.
