Almost tiki, but based on smokey mezcal and coffee. While we not at all encourage smoking tobacco, we can certainly understand how this cocktail got its name. The combination of flavors is really interesting. The very potent mezcal is paired with distinct flavors such as coffee, grapefruit juice and allspice! But just like in tiki drinks “more is more” and of course this recipe ends up being both delicious and memorable.

Here are suggestions for three fantastic cocktails, made with Barceló Imperial. It is a rum made in the Dominican Republic, aged for up to ten years on oak casks. The rum tastes of caramel, vanilla, toasted nuts and wood - hence making it an excellent rum for mixing cocktails with. In Sweden Barceló Imperial can be ordered here. DO

A gin cocktail, with plum syrup and lemon

Plum & Done

On a recent visit to Skåne, in the south of Sweden, we stumbled upon a plum tree with thousand of ripe plums on it. We turned them into syrup, and we put some others in rum, to be used as garnish. The result is a gin sour with taste and color from those plums, we call it Plum & Done! 50 ml gin (we used Skånska Spritfabriken's) 30 ml fresh lemon juice 20 ml plum syrup Shake with fresh ice, strain into a chilled coupe and garnish with a brandied plum pierced by a tiny fork.
