recipe
yields
one cocktail
1 ounce Plantation 3-Stars rum
1 ounce Red Harbor rum
¾ ounces peanut orgeat (recipe follows)
½ ounce banana liqueur
1 egg
Chocolate bitters for garnish
Peanut crumbles for garnish
1¼ cups water
1½ cups sugar
2 cups Hubs peanuts
1 teaspoon orange flower water
1 ounce vodka
Ingredients
Peanut Orgeat (Makes 1½ cups)
steps
Shake first five ingredients well with ice, strain, and reshake. (This will allow the egg to create a rich, fluffy cocktail.) Strain contents into a chilled coupe and garnish one half with aromatic chocolate bitters and the other with crushed peanuts.
Peanut Orgeat:
Combine water and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Using a food processor, pulverize peanuts. After the sugar-water has boiled for about 2 minutes, add the peanuts. Reduce heat to low and allow the mix to simmer for several more minutes. Remove from heat and allow mixture to sit at room temperature for 6 hours. Strain through cheesecloth, discarding all solids. Add orange flower water and vodka. Mixture will keep for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.
