  • Really nice tiki drink. Made this because we didn't have the allspice dram to make Three Dots and a Dash, but still wanted to make a drink that uses passion fruit pulp. — ★★★★★

Excellent, herbal, funky, fruity. Used passion fruit syrup cause I had no pulp and it's still great.

The Last Rasta

3⁄4 oz Mezcal, Del Maguey Vida
3⁄4 oz Falernum, Velvet Falernum
3⁄4 oz Jamaican rum, Appleton 12
3⁄4 oz Lime juice
3⁄4 oz Herbal liqueur, Green Chartreuse
1 twst Lime peel
Instructions

Shake, Strain, Up, Twist. Use a fun glass and listen to Horace Andy while preparing.

Notes

My variations have included subbing the falernum with allspice dram but it was too sweet. Also, it just doesn't work without the lime, but feel free to try other rums... The Appleton was a later addition; it adds depth and funk, but any anejo rum should work.

History

This started as a Jamaican inspired version of "The Last Word" but no matter how hard I tried I couldn't strip it down to 4 equal parts. I guess that Jah provides the Rastaman with that extra ingredient...

maitaioneon commented on 2/13/2021:

I make many cocktails that use small amounts of Giffard du Bresil and the flavor comes out strong. The Elusive Dreams and Fay Wray cocktails, for example, call for .5 oz each. It's very present in each of those. 

GatorTrader commented on 4/01/2022:

Good drink, although Creme de Banana felt a bit overpowering at these specs and I wanted more of the Sibilla which worked so, so well. I adjusted to 2.25oz Manzanilla sherry, .5oz CdB, .5oz banana-infused bourbon (happened to have a few oz left from another application), and .5oz Sibilla. Came out to be a fantastic low ABV sipper, thanks for the template!

  • I did a full tiny lemon, which was way too much. Probably just need half a small. I could tell this is a great drink though.
  • Simple, with cynar
  • A favorite. I love the way the lemon comes through; less bitter than the search for delicious and I think a bit more compelling
  • 2/1/0.75

Zachary Pearson commented on 3/27/2019:

So... this drink. I think that this was the original. It inspired Kirk Estopinal at Cure in New Orleans to come up with the Search for Delicious, which was featured in Beta Cocktails. I would guess that (as Misty Kalkofen put it) a "game of telephone" ensued and thus the Little Giuseppe. All three are significant. Thanks, Zachary

yarm commented on 10/18/2022:

It's listed as 2009 in The Bartender's Manifesto book which is simultaneous with Misty's Little Giuseppe.

LemonMelon commented on 11/23/2022:

So delicious and well balanced! I like to add an ounce of gin to proof it up.

yarm commented on 1/27/2023:

For the longest time, I thought this and the Little Giuseppe were a jab at Giuseppe Gonzalez but Stephen Cole attributes the name to a chef friend of his with the genesis story involving, "One night an Italian chef I knew came into the bar for a drink. I thought he'd like a Cynar Manhattan."
