Ghost Shore

AI-generatedChallengingNick & Nora

A bone-dry, oceanic sip where sherry and white rum stretch out languidly over lime and black pepper like a tide retreating at dusk.


Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 oz white rum
  • 1 oz sherry (fino or manzanilla)
  • 3/4 oz lime juice
  • 1/4 oz heavy cream
  • 4 cracks black pepper (freshly cracked)
  • 1 dash angostura bitters

Method

  1. 11. Crack black pepper directly into the shaker and let it sit for 30 seconds to begin releasing its oils.
  2. 22. Add white rum, sherry, lime juice, and heavy cream to the shaker.
  3. 33. Add one dash of angostura bitters and fill the shaker with ice.
  4. 44. Shake vigorously for 15 seconds — the cream needs to fully emulsify with the citrus.
  5. 55. Double-strain into a chilled coupe or Nick & Nora glass.
  6. 66. Finish with two final cracks of black pepper directly over the surface.

PRO TIP

Use a fino or manzanilla sherry specifically — their saline, almond-dry profile is the backbone of the drink; an oloroso will make it cloying and obscure the pepper entirely.

Garnish — two cracks of fresh black pepper on the foam surface
