A friend of mine posted a very good cocktail on Facebook the other day, using coffee liqueur as a substitute for the sweet vermouth in a Manhattan. Sadly, her drink called for juices that I don't have, like orange juice. (It's a strange life). What I do have, is Pyrat, a rum that is quite orange forward. So I thought I'd do something to try and re-create Kat's drink. Here's the Renaissance de l'Orange:
1.5 oz Pyrat rum (you could maybe do a white rum with Cointreau? I haven't tried it that way, so I promise nothing)
.5 oz Nocino liqueur
.5 oz Creme de Cacao
.5 oz Coffee liqueur (I used St. George, but do as you will).
I finished it with lemon bitters. Mole or habenero bitters could be good too. Cheers!
