happyrobot commented on 10/06/2019:

I had just bought new bottles of Amargo-Vallet and Creme de Banane and saw this cocktail and felt like the universe was telling me something. Tasty. I might add a little egg white to get a small amount of froth on the top. I personally felt the banana got lost in the mix, but will attempt again to confirm.

Dark Desires

1 1⁄2 oz Venezuelan rum, Diplomatico (Reserva Exclusiva)
1⁄4 oz Allspice Dram, Bitter Truth
1⁄4 oz Coffee liqueur, St. George (NOLA)
1⁄2 oz Passion fruit syrup
1⁄2 oz Lime juice
1 sli Lime (garnish)
Instructions

Shakes all ingredients except lime garnish with ice, strain into a chilled coupe and garnish with a lime wheel.

Notes

For the passion fruit syrup, I use a package of Goya frozen unsweetened passion fruit pulp (14 oz), and sous vide at 135 degrees for 2 hours with equal parts cane sugar. You could also defrost the pulp and blend it with the sugar in a blender for a cold press syrup. Either way, I try to avoid bringing it to too high of temperature via stove top cooking.

Jim Beam Maple bourbon was in the cupboard, so that's what I used. If you don't have that, you might want a tiny dash of simple syrup also.

  • In theory I love the combination of banana and Smith and Cross due to the hogo reminding me of bananas, but here the S&C is quite overpowering even in small amounts.
