Cocktail: Hemingway Pomelo Special

Since Pomelo juice is a great one-for-one substitute for grapefruit juice I mixed it into one of the simplest grapefruit cocktails out there: the Hemingway Special.  Obviously a famous twist off a sugarless Daquiri,  and a favorite of its namesake author, it’s an easy drink to make with just a handful of ingredients.  If you can’t find pomelos around you,  grapefruit juice in the same amount will do just fine… It was good enough for Hemingway after all!

Ingredients:

  • 2 oz Raleigh Rum Company white rum
  • 1 1/2 oz fresh pomelo juice
  • 1/2 oz Luxardo Maraschino
  • 1/2 oz Lime juice

Assembly is easy (once you are done juicing the fruit!), just add all ingredients to a shaker,  shake up and strain into a glass!
