Havana Benediction
AI-generatedMediumRocks
Smoky-sweet and unhurried, like a late-night conversation in a rum-soaked courtyard.
Ingredients
- ◆1 1/2 oz Dark Rum
- ◆1/2 oz Spiced Rum
- ◆3/4 oz Benedictine
- ◆3/4 oz Sweet Vermouth
- ◆1/4 oz Campari
Method
- 11. Place a large ice cube into a rocks glass and set it aside to chill.
- 22. Combine dark rum, spiced rum, Benedictine, sweet vermouth, and Campari in a mixing glass filled with ice.
- 33. Stir steadily for 40 seconds — this drink needs full dilution to soften the herbal edges.
- 44. Strain over the large ice cube in the rocks glass.
- 55. Allow the drink to rest for 30 seconds before serving to let the aromas bloom.
PRO TIP
The 30-second resting period is not optional theatre — warming slightly off the ice opens the Benedictine's honey and saffron notes that would otherwise stay buried under cold.
Garnish — wide orange twist
