It’s time for a super yummy rum sour! I love using Flor de Caña rum in a sour-style cocktail because it’s aged in small white oak bourbon barrels (and sealed with plantain leaves), not to mention at the base of a volcano! This cocktail is tart, strong, and herbal – so delish.

Read MoreIt’s national Amaretto Day, so let’s celebrate with this riff on a Paper Plane! Surprisingly enough, Amaretto (such as the well-known Disaronno) is not made with almonds, or even nuts!
