It was the two limes that caught our interest in this recipe. It's kind of an imprecise measurement, but it's anyway a lot of lime! So it's no surprise that this drink turns out quite sour, especially when also the orange juice is added.

That big amount of chocolate liqueur however, counters the acidity pretty well. The combination of orange and chocolate is a classic, and it works brilliantly in this peculiar cocktail

Rum is a versatile spirit. It can be enjoyed both neat and in cocktails. It is a vital ingredient in several classic drinks, as well as in newer cocktail creations. Here are suggestions for three fantastic cocktails, made with Barceló Imperial. It is a rum made in the Dominican Republic, aged for up to ten years on oak casks. The rum tastes of caramel, vanilla, toasted nuts and wood - hence making it an excellent rum for mixing cocktails with. In Sweden Barceló Imperial can be ordered here. DO

A gin cocktail, with plum syrup and lemon

Plum & Done

On a recent visit to Skåne, in the south of Sweden, we stumbled upon a plum tree with thousand of ripe plums on it. We turned them into syrup, and we put some others in rum, to be used as garnish. The result is a gin sour with taste and color from those plums, we call it Plum & Done! 50 ml gin (we used Skånska Spritfabriken's) 30 ml fresh lemon juice 20 ml plum syrup Shake with fresh ice, strain into a chilled coupe and garnish with a brandied plum pierced by a tiny fork.
