About
This cocktail was created by Zac Pease and Joseph “Joey” Goetz in Charleston in 2023. Pease and Goetz were both part of the team behind Last Saint (@lastsaintchs), the Charleston cocktail bar they opened with Brandon Bramhall in 2021. This cocktail is fully tropical, with funky Jamaican rum, ripe banana and pineapple joined by the honeyed Scotch and spice of Drambuie. The absinthe rinse adds a flash of anise around the edges, while the mint and freshly grated nutmeg make it especially aromatic. Dry shaking the pineapple before pouring over crushed ice gives the drink its foamy top.Cheers y’all!
