Drink recipes

[noahgibbs]

Been buying Tiki drink ingredients and playing around a bit lately.

Two recipes:

Rum Shirley
- 1 part cachaca or white Rhum Agricole
- 2 parts falernum
- 1 part grenadine
- 2 parts sours mix
- Sprite to taste, about 2-6 parts

This is basically an alcoholic Shirley Temple, and as deadly as you'd hope. "Hey, why don't you put some alcohol in this?"

Cherry Fire
1 part Cherry Heering
1 part falernum
1 shake of Cayenne pepper

What it says on the tin.

In case you're curious, falernum is an almond/clove/spices Caribbean drink, either as alcoholic as wine or non-alcoholic. You can substitute white rum for cachaca or Rhum Agricole, if you must. But it's better with the real thing.

I'm not sure what you'd substitute for Cherry Heering unless you have another cherry brandy.
