Notes
This drink's name was coined by Tammy Coxen of Ann Arbor, MI, USA. http://www.tammystastings.com/ This is a tropical version of a corpse reviver. The rinse of Laphroigh gives this a smoky profile up front that adds to the complexity of the drink but doesn't add a ton of smokiness.
History
Created as part of a Mixology Monday post/contest on cocktailvirgin.blogspot.com. This is a tropical version of a corpse reviver.

  • Made with Pyrat so it was consequently orangey. Nose a little puzzling but the rinse worked well tastewise. — ☆☆☆☆
  • Maybe a touch too much lime but it’s awesome Made with Carpano — ☆☆☆☆
