Cure - Manhattan Variation

  • 1 oz Overproof Rum
  • 1 barspoon Gran Classico
  • 14 drops Orange Bitters

This recipe presents like an inverted Manhattan but drinks like an awesome rum Negroni. Some daring bartenders originated this by taking equal parts Punt e Mes and Overproof Rum and taking it as a shot. In a cocktail, this combo really works, especially with the fruity notes of Gran Classico and orange bitters balancing it all out.
