About
This cocktail was created by Frederic Yarm (@fredericyarm) as a direct cross between Sother Teague’s Rough Seas and Brian Miller’s 2009 Death & Co. cocktail, the Gilda. It borrows Rough Seas’ equal split of cachaça and Jägermeister, then plugs it into the Gilda’s pineapple-cinnamon-lime framework. The result is a compact tropical sour with grassy funk, warm spice, and a bitter herbal undercurrent. The name also neatly continues the nautical imagery of Rough Seas.Cheers y’all!
