One of my favorite originals, both in terms of taste and looks. I know it's a lot of ingredients, but honestly I tried with fewer, and this is what's needed to make the elderflower really pop. I actually premix the fiddly bits (so everything except rums, elderflower liquer, lemon, eggwhite) because it's a crowd favorite at my place.

Recipe:

• 15 ml / 0.5 oz Aged Rum
• 15 ml / 0.5 oz Black Rum
• 22.5 ml / 0.75 oz Elderflower liqueur
• 7.5 ml / 0.25 oz Velvet Falernum
• 7.5 ml / 0.25 oz Vanilla syrup
• 1 tsp Blue Curacao
• 1 tsp Apricot brandy
• 1 tsp Peach liqueur
• 15 ml / 0.5 oz lemon juice (this is really important, lime juice will ruin this drink!)
• 1 ds Orange bitters
• eggwhite

Instructions: combine, dry shake, shake with ice, double strain.

Garnish: any type of flowers, I use dried hibiscus and rose bud.

Notes:

1. The green color comes from the combination of blue curacao and peach liqueur. I use a local peach liqueur, but it should be an orangy-red color (it will not work if it's too red).
2. You can play with the combination of rums to your heart's content. This version with Gosslings and Angostura 7yr is super accessible (everyone likes it), but it also works well with Ango, Jamaican and an extra 0.25 oz Plantation OFTD if you like the taste of rum
