Kindred Cocktails commented on 1/23/2015:

Curated to remove unneeded ingredient notes and add brand of bitters. Your instructions imply a stir-and-dump into an OF glass. Do you mean this to be strained?

3⁄4 oz Galliano
3⁄4 oz Triple sec, Cointreau
1 wdg Lime (lime wheel, as garnish)

Sort of a vanilla and anise Sidecar, notable both for its unusual ingredients in a tropical setting and for its early use of Galliano.

Caribbean Punch

1 oz Puerto Rican Rum (gold)
1 oz Jamaican rum, Appleton Estate V/X
1 1⁄2 oz Sarsaparilla soda (or root beer)
1⁄2 oz Falernum
1⁄2 oz Simple syrup
1⁄2 oz Lime juice
1 ds Grenadine
3 ds Bitters, Angostura
6 dr Herbal liqueur, Pernod (or absinthe)
3 dr Almond syrup
8 oz Crushed ice
1 spg Mint (as garnish)
Instructions

Blend at high speed for 5 seconds or under, pour unstrained into something tall and add ice to top. Garnish.

Notes

Martin Doudoroff, in his Tiki+ app, speculates that the sarsaparilla may be a nod to the soda fountains of Don's youth. I think they may be inspired by the mauby (sometimes "mavi") tree bark-based sodas popular throughout the Caribbean, which share flavor notes in common with sarsaparillas and root beers.

  • 6/13/20: Made as written except omitted grenadine (didn't have) and simple syrup (sweet enough without). Quite tasty. Might increase lime to 0.75 oz and/or reduce root beer to 1 oz.

Zachary Pearson commented on 1/22/2015:

Curated this. To avoid copyright issues, rewrote the instructions and removed edible flower garnish (which was in the instructions, but not in the recipe). Removed the teaser that it's a White Lady variation - it's not. 

Thanks,

Zachary
