About
This cocktail was created by Jon Mateer (@vodkapaysmybills) at TPC Sawgrass (St. Augustine, FL). Yellow Chartreuse and Averna round out the edges with herbal warmth and a little richness, while just a touch of passionfruit and vanilla pull in something tropical and unexpected. Though, I find the spice of rye works well in tropical/tiki drinks, so I especially enjoyed it here.Cheers y’all!
