About
This cocktail was created in 2019 by the talented Chad Austin (@chaddaustin) at Lono Bar (now closed; Hollywood, CA). I’ve shared riffs on the Trinidad Sour before, which led me to come across this one. WOW, I can’t believe it took me this long to make it. It’s huge on aromatics and flavor, and the balance is impressive. You really do feel like you’re in a tiki bar when you’re sipping one of these.Cheers y’all!
