Hi there! I've been a bartender at the same restaurant for over 10 years. My favorite spirits to work with are rum (love a good tiki drink!), gin and amaros. I love to garden and I often use the herbs and produce I grow to make syrups and infusions. Cheers y'all! ...

First, infuse the Denizen rum with apples and cider spices. Combine all ingredients in a shaker with ice, shake to chill. Dump into a tiki glass, top with crushed ice and garnish.

Editor's Note

Denizen’s vatted dark rum meets crisp apple cider and warm spices, turning a classic tiki grog into an autumn‑ready sipper.
