Shrunken Skull
I love the Shrunken Skull for its directness. The whole drink is a conversation between rich, funky Demerara and a brighter, drier gold rum. It’s a simple sour build proving that the right cocktail ingredients make all the difference in your home bar, and I'm glad to feature these specific craft spirits on Bitter Bear spirits.
