  • Wonderful, but 1 black strap rum with 1 chartreuse is even better
  • Cocktail Chemistry Specs: 1.5oz (45ml) Green Chartreuse .5oz (15ml) fresh pineapple juice .5oz (15ml) cream of coconut 1oz (30ml) fresh lime juice
  • It would be hard to go wrong with a GC Piña Colada...
  • Delicious. The chartreuse isn't overpowering but is nice.

This is the same concept as the Chartreuse Colada.The Branca Menta will add mintiness (in the other drink) is a nice choice although that is probably up to taste. The presence of lime (in this drink) improves this (and other) Piña Coladas so keep that. The Coco López is the traditional choice (IMHO) is often better than trying to make your own coconut cream although often a combination of CL and CM/CC leads to the best results.

Since I don't know what "a standard sized" ice cube is, my suggestion would be to use about 6 oz of ice (by weight).

I don't have Scarlet Ibis, so I tried making this with a bottle of Zaya that I am regretting having bought (the only Trinidad rum I have.) The overwhelming vanilla flavor made this drink cloying. So if you have a recent vintage bottle of Zaya, I wouldn't try it in this drink. In fact, I'm not sure what I'd try it in.

Inspired. A real procession on the palet. 1 shot choc bitters worked for me. The whiskey does what no American whiskey could do. Well done.

  • Used Averna instead of Nonino and 1/4 oz Nocino instead of the bitters. Try Nonino next time and work on the Nocino amount (start lower and work up)
  • Made w/ old fashion bitters. Surprisingly light on the cherry taste for a drink w/ this name. Christmas spice from the Montenegro is more salient (the subbed bitters didn't help). Garnished w/ Maraschino cherry. Seemed right.
  • Good. A bit too sweet for my taste. Might be interesting to try with a less sweet amaro

Used High West Campfire as the base whiskey to bring in a little smoke.  Reduced Montenegro by 1/4 oz and added a Luxardo Maraschino cherry for garnish.  Excellent!


meltingUpwards commented on 7/14/2024:

I like this as an equal parts all 1oz/30cl.
Then 2 dashes of firewater bitters and 2 dashes cherry cacao bitters.
