Base Ingredients

Clarified Milk Wash

Preparation

Preparation of Clarified Milk Wash

1. Combine Ingredients

In a bowl, mix the whole milk, sugar, and lemon juice until the sugar is fully dissolved.

2. Strain the Mixture

Pour the mixture through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into another bowl to separate the curds from the whey. Let it sit for about 30 minutes.

3. Collect the Clarified Milk

After straining, the liquid that remains is your clarified milk wash. Set it aside for later use.

Prepare Banana Infused Rum

4. Infuse the Rum

Peel the ripe bananas and place them in a jar. Pour the Havana Club Rum over the bananas, ensuring they are fully submerged. Seal the jar and let it sit in a cool, dark place for 24-48 hours.

5. Strain the Infusion

After the infusion period, strain the rum through a fine mesh sieve to remove the banana solids. The resulting liquid is your banana-infused rum.

Mixing the Cocktail

6. Combine Ingredients

In a cocktail shaker, combine 60 ml of the banana-infused Havana Club Rum, 30 ml of lime juice, and 4 dashes of tiki bitters.

7. Shake the Cocktail

Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds until well chilled.

8. Strain into Glass

Using a fine mesh strainer, pour the cocktail into a chilled glass filled with ice.

9. Add Clarified Milk Wash

Layer the clarified milk wash over the top of the cocktail gently to create a beautiful presentation.
