Beachcomber

1 1⁄2 oz Light rum
3⁄4 oz Orange liqueur, Cointreau
3⁄4 oz Lime juice
1⁄4 oz Maraschino Liqueur, Luxardo
1⁄8 oz Simple syrup (optional)
Instructions

Shake, strain, up.

Notes

In Trader Vic's formulation, the Beachcomber is a blended drink with 2 ounces of rum. For this shaken-and-strained variation, the amount of spirit is dialed back a bit. If you choose to blend your Beachcombers over ice, try upping the rum to 2 ounces per serving

History

Appears in the famous 1947 Bartender's Guide by tiki legend Trader Vic (Victor Bergeron, Jr.)
