A triumvirate of spirits that argues loudly and beautifully, settling into something surprisingly refined.


Ingredients

  • 1 oz Gin
  • 1 oz Bourbon
  • 3/4 oz Dark rum

Method

  1. 11. Place a large ice cube into a rocks glass and set aside to chill.
  2. 22. Combine gin, bourbon, and dark rum in a mixing glass filled with ice.
  3. 33. Stir for 40 seconds — longer than you think necessary — to integrate and dilute properly.
  4. 44. Taste for balance; the three spirits should feel like a single voice.
  5. 55. Strain over the large ice cube in the prepared rocks glass.
  6. 66. Allow the drink to rest 20 seconds before serving.

PRO TIP

The 20-second rest after pouring lets the spirits marry on the ice — skipping it makes the drink taste disjointed rather than composed.

Garnish — wide lemon peel draped over the rim
