Three Dots and a Dash

View this post on Instagram

Three Dots and a Dash I took another run at this Don the Beachcomber original, rediscovered by @official_beachbumberry for the Sippin’ Safari book. The glass from @tikikon pays homage to the Beachcomber. This cocktail uses Martinique Rhum Agricole and I’ve been enjoy this style of rum more than I have in the past so this was a good time to give it a try. I used @rhumclement VSOP which I liked recently in a Mai Tai. The verdict? Well, this was still too far in the grassy flavor direction for my taste. Glad I tried it again though. Keep challenging your assumptions and preferences. #tiki #tikidrinks #cocktails #craftcocktails #tikiculture #donthebeachcomber #rum #rhum #martiniquerhum
