I can't stop thinking about the delicious drink I had during Tiki Week at Heaven's Dog. So I asked bar/general manger Erik Adkins for the recipe and he was nice enough to share.
"The Montego Bay is listed in Beachbum Berry's 'Intoxica'. He says that
it is a Don the Beachcomber Drink from the Hotel Sahara in Las Vegas
1940's."
The version they made at Heaven's Dog is this:
Montego Bay
(adapted from Beachbum Berry's Intoxica by Erik Adkins of Heaven's Dog)
1/2 oz lime
1/2 oz grapefruit
1 oz honey syrup (1 to 1 dilution with water)
2 dashes Angostura bitters
4 dashes absinthe
1/4 oz all spice dram
11/2 oz Smith & Cross Jamaican rumShake all ingredients and strain over crushed ice.
This is one of those drinks where Smith & Cross completely makes the drink. So funky.
