Catamaran

A rich, bittersweet Tradewinds riff from Death & Co NYC that accentuates the beautiful pairing between grapefruit and baking spice 🍹⛵️🥥🍋
The blend of a citrus-friendly dry Gin and Navy Strength Gin result in a base with notes of juniper, chamomile, and citrus peel that helps highlight the bittersweet grapefruit juice. The dry, yet juicy citrus peel notes of the aperitivo (Aperol) and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice helps boost these notes while cinnamon syrup adds a baking spice note that helps the grapefruit pop while also bridging the botanical and spice notes in the gin to the rest of the drink. Coconut creme adds a rich tropical note that helps smooth the edges of the drink. Excellent for enjoyment on a sunny day!
1.5 oz New American or citrus-friendly London Dry Gin (Aviation, Four Pillars, Bimini, Plymouth, etc)
.5 oz Navy Strength Gin (Genius, Perry’s Tot, etc)
1 oz Donn’s Mix #1 (two parts fresh grapefruit juice: 1 part cinnamon bark syrup)
.5 oz Fresh Lemon Juice
.5 oz Coconut Creme (equal parts unsweetened coconut milk and simple syrup with a pinch of salt; blend until combined)
Shake with ice and strain into a chilled Tulip or Footed Pilsner glass. Garnish with a cinnamon stick, swizzle stick, and grapefruit twist (feel free to add an edible flower if handy)
