Jamaican Beer

1 oz Dark rum, Appleton V/X
1⁄2 oz Rhum Agricole, Barbancourt 8
1 oz Whipped cream (see note)
1 pn Allspice (as garnish)
Instructions

Stir in the glass the first two ingredient with a big rock of ice. Then drop the cream very slow in the glass, to make like a nice white foam on the top of the drink (as a deconstructed White Russian...) Drop a pinch of allspice.

Notes

To make the whipped cream: In a bowl, whip some coconut cream, sugar (1 or 2 teaspoon for 1 oz of cream, see notes), and small/thin zests of lime (a hour before making the cocktail).

Pastry-like cocktail.
It's supposed to taste as sweet as an Old-Fashioned.

Veneto Negroni

1 oz Gin
1⁄2 oz Amaro, Cappelletti Sfumato Rabarbaro (Zucca will work here too)
1⁄2 oz Aperol
1 oz Sweet vermouth
1 twst Grapefruit peel (As garnish)
Instructions

Stir with ice, strain into an old fashioned glass with ice, and garnish with a grapefruit twist.

History

After posting my Dark Entries on Instagram and receiving the comment by Haus Alpenz's Jake Parrott that the "50:50 rabarbaro and red bitter is a classic café drink in the Veneto – one of many drinks in Italy to get the moniker 'mezzo-mezzo'," I was inspired to tinker. I decided to use that duo of Sfumato and Aperol in a classic Negroni, and I dubbed the result the Veneto Negroni (and not the Mezzo-Mezgroni).

Used Cocchi Vermouth di Torino (.5 oz) and Vermut Lustau Rose (.5oz), because I ran out of the Cocchi...too honeyed of a taste, assume it was due to the Cocchi...Would prefer something less sweet.
