Only this sheet prints - the size above is what it is set to.
Ingredients
- 90 ml Vodka
- 90 ml Tequila blanco
- 90 ml White rum
- 90 ml Gin
- 90 ml Triple sec - Cointreau if you have it, which is what the original asks for
- 150 ml Lemon juice - Freshly squeezed, and please do not skip it
- 180 ml Simple syrup
- 180 ml Cola - Just enough to colour it and no more
Pitcher (6 drinks) - about 960 ml of measured ingredients, before ice and dilution.
Timings and per-glass steps are written for one drink and are not scaled. A full jug takes longer to chill, so stir or shake until it is properly cold rather than by the clock, and pour over fresh ice one glass at a time.
Quick version
- Build the five spirits, the lemon and the syrup over ice in a tall glass.
- Stir well, then top with a splash of cola for the colour - and the name.
Method
- Fill a highball glass with ice and leave it to chill while you gather the bottles.
- Pour in the vodka, tequila, white rum, gin and triple sec.
- Add the lemon juice and the syrup.
- Stir for a good ten seconds - this is a strong drink and the ice is doing the diluting.
- Top with a short splash of cola, stir once more, and finish with a slice of lemon.
