SLC Punch is a distinctive cocktail that embraces the earthy essence of avocado leaves infused into coconut milk that is used to clarify it, lending it a unique and captivating character. The robust and warm tones of Flor de Caña 12-year-old Rum find harmony with the citrusy infusion of lime leaves. Complementing this blend, the nutty undertones of pistachio orgeat meld seamlessly with the richness of amontillado sherry wine and chocolate liquor, all enveloped in the zesty embrace of fresh lime juice. This punch is a delightful journey through layers of flavours, creating an experience that lingers on the palate.
