Rum Martinez
GLASSWARE: THRIFTED COUPE GLASS
A quick simple stirred cocktail always makes me take a sigh of relief. While I love rolling up my sleeves and getting creative with some complicated drinks, sometimes it’s nice to dial it back with something classic. I had a pretty nice bottle of Flor de Caña rum and wanted to put it good use, so made a cheeky lil Rum Martinez!
