The Blackbeard's Ghost
The Blackbeard's Ghost is one of my favorite modern tiki cocktails because it's a perfect example of a complex build that absolutely sings. The split base of bright, column-distilled rum and a richer, pot-still Demerara creates an incredible foundation for all that citrus and spice.
