Where Is My Mind?

配料

The Mind Eraser is pretty simple to make, built directly in a rocks glass using just coffee liqueur, vodka and club soda. My version is also pretty easy, and can be built directly in a rocks glass. However, I do prefer to stir & strain. You also have the choice of infusing your own rum with pineapple or using an existing pineapple rum like Stiggins’ Fancy from Planteray. Should you decide to infuse the rum yourself, I recommend using both the fruit AND the skins from an entire pineapple, 2-3 pinches of coarse salt and (2) 750ml bottles of your favorite rum—Appleton Estate, Havana Club, Probitas or an overproof rums like Smith & Cross all work great. Let everything infuse for up to 24 hours and then double strain the rum infusion back into their original bottles. Try blending two different rums together if you really want to elevate your cocktail.

I was swimmin’ in the Caribbean

Animals were hidin’ behind the rock

Except the little fish

Bump into me, swear he’s tryin’ a talk to me”
