1⁄2 oz Rum, Papa's Pilar Blonde 3 Year
3⁄4 oz Cream
Instructions

Shake all ingredients with ice for 15 seconds, strain into a chilled coupe.

Notes

The Papa's Pilar Blonde is a clearly adulterated sweet bomb rum with strong butterscotch notes that typically aren't present in other light rums. Use a gold or dark rum with a similar sweet profile if it's unavailable.

  • Used a wheated bourbon. A little too sweet. Next time try a rye. Not my favorite and took some warming up to but worth trying again.

  • Flavors are harmonious, and the turmeric intriguing, but it's far too much cinnamon syrup. I ended up adding ~½ oz lime juice for balance, and it's still very sweet.
