This was my submission for Hali.Team ‘s Campari Bitter Brawl, a first, exclusive Halifax cocktail comp!!! This drink is inspired by memories of seeing movies with my family and the legend of Cola Slushies at the Theatre. I swear the machine at the theatre in St. John’s was broken from 1999 until they got rid…
A variation on a martini — as such, this is a spirit forward drink intended to be sipped and savoured slowly.

Rum and coconut milk make a lot of sense together. I love Lillet and its elegance. I love cardamom bitters because they’re dope and we all love nori. Its best friend…
