About
This cocktail was created by Oslo cocktail enthusiast Fransos (@fransos) in 2012 as a tribute to Adam “MCA” Yauch of the Beastie Boys. It is an equal-parts Last Word riff that replaces gin with Smith & Cross and maraschino with ginger liqueur. The high-proof Jamaican rum gives it plenty of funk, while the ginger brings some heat against the sharp lime and herbal Chartreuse. It is loud, spicy, and a fitting tribute to MCA.Cheers y’all!
