Callaloo Cooler
Callaloo Cooler - Callaloo is a Jamaican green, leafy vegetable that is cooked in a traditional “One-Pot dish”. Callaloo with onions, garlic and tomatoes, Thyme and… SCOTCH peppers!! Whoo hoo!! That’s hot! So hot, that a “Cooler” is required. Created by Melissa Garcia at @smugglerscovesf, it provides the perfect foil to the blazing dish. I used the “Detroit meets Jamaica” Doctor Bird Rum from Two James @twojames as an exemplar of the Jamaican traditional funky rum vibe!
1 oz Q Spectacular Club Soda
.75 oz Fresh Lime Juice
.5 oz Cinnamon Syrup
.5 oz Cherry Heering
2 oz Doctor Bird Rum
1 Dash Angostura Aromatic Bitters
In a Collins glass full of crushed or cracked ice add your Q Spectacular Club Soda. In a steel shaker of ice add all the rest of the ingredients and flash blend. Strain into the glass.
Garnish with Mint sprig and Cinnamon Stick. Enjoy!
