Advanced Palate

I wanted to do a rum-based version of the Old Fashioned, that relies on Falaernum for spice and sweetness. With only three ingredients, it's also a minimalist version of a tiki drink.

Editor's Note

A smart, three-ingredient Old Fashioned riff. Falernum replaces the sugar cube, bringing lime, almond, and clove notes to complement the aged rum base.
