This big boozy bomber is a reshake of an oooold one. So old that I first made it before I started chronicling this obsession online. The original Bohemian recipe was from the Little Black Book of Cocktails (a piece of literature which I’ve long since abandoned) and called for vodka with cranberry, passionfruit and pineapple juices. It was begging to be tikified, so that’s what I did!

Editor's Note

Pot still rum brings a funky backbone to this Tiki-inspired riff. Passion fruit and pineapple provide the tropical lift, while cranberry bitters add a necessary dry finish.
