Royal Bastard

I based this Martinique rum cocktail on Saint James Royal Ambre: bright, dry and assertive, and a favorite of mine for mixing. The aldehyde and woodsy notes combine well with the ginger of Domaine de Canton. I’ve tried this drink with other dry ambers and it’s OK, but Martinique rum makes this one come alive.



Royal Bastard
  • 2 oz amber Martinique rum (Saint James Royal Ambre)
  • 3/4 oz Domain de Canton
  • 1/2 oz Cointreau
  • 1/2 oz lime juice
Shake with ice and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with a lime wedge.
