The Twenty Seventy Swizzle

Written By Jan Rishoi

The Twenty Seventy Swizzle - What is a “Swizzle” you ask? Instead of mixing a drink in a separate vessel, you use a swizzle stick or bar spoon and mix your drink in the glass you choose. This name is a numerical calculation with the rums chosen to fill this drink order. The Angostura 1919 from Trinidad and the “151” or Overproof rum that round this drink out. I used the Plantation O.F.T.D. which is not quite technically 151 proof, but i think you get the point. The natural vanilla notes of the Angostura are supercharged by the overproof rum and really make a spicy concoction. Allspice Dram and Nutmeg along with a Smuggler’s Cove blend called “Herbstura” . Herbstura is a blend of the Legendary Angostura Aromatic Bitter and a curious spirit called Herbsaint from New Orleans. Herbsaint is truly a unique spirit with an anise base and many herbs and spices. Imagine Jagermeister meets Ouzo. A dash is all you need!
