I made my own Falernum, and then I made this drink. The recipe I referenced a year ago seems to have disappeared, but I was able to find an excellent one by Kaiser Penguin. The best commercial Falernum out there is John D. Taylor’s Velvet Falernum, but it can be pretty tough to find, so it might be easier to make your own. It only took 24 hours to infuse, and the hardest part was zesting all of the limes. (8 of them!) The other flavors in there are really great. You’ve got ginger, almond, and toasted whole Caribbean spices like nutmeg, cloves, and allspice.

Build this drink in a highball glass and give a light stir. Careful: it’s sweet, but very strong!

Drink Up! Doctor’s orders.
