What is the bartender tip for a Wray's Nephew?
Sean Hoard, Teardrop Lounge (Portland): 30 ml Wray & Nephew overproof, 15 ml aged rum, 30 ml pineapple, 7.5 ml lime, 7.5 ml 2:1 syrup, and 5 ml Fernet Branca. Without Wray, Rum Fire covers Jamaican overproof. If your syrup is 1:1, use 10 ml. Fresh pineapple foams and tastes brighter; 100% boxed juice works. The Fernet is the herbal bitter — it's not falernum. Chilled coupe. It's not the catalog's Daiquiri (one rum, no pineapple), the Jungle Bird (Campari on the rocks), or the Hurricane (passion fruit).
