It's pumpkin spice without the pumpkin! Although this type of cocktail normally makes its rounds in the fall, I still love to reach for something like it when winter stubbornly marches on. The color is nothing to write home about so I threw it into my handmade False Idol mug by Bosko. Cocktail is originally by Brian "shakerofspirits" Maxwell.

THREE DOTS AND A DASH

½ oz lime juice
½ oz orange juice
½ oz honey syrup
¼ oz falernum
¼ oz allspice dram
1½ oz Rhum Agricole Vieux ❽
½ oz Blended Aged Rum ❸
1 dash Angostura bitters

Garnish: three maraschino cherries, pineapple chunk
Method: Add all the ingredients to a drink mixer tin. Fill with 12 oz crushed ice and 4-6 agitator cubes. Flash blend and open pour with a gated finish into a footed pilsner glass. If you don't have a drink blender (I don't) then shaking obviously does the trick.

For the garnish use one spear for three maraschino cherries and the pineapple chunk. Place horizontally on the rim of the glass. It represents V for victory in Morse code •••—

This drink is a certified tiki classic from Don the Beachcomber during WWII, later decoded by Jeff Beachbum Berry, and republished in the Smuggler's Cove book, page 43.
