Ingredients: 15 ml Thyme Syrup; 30 ml Cuban Rum; 23 ml Lemon Juice; 30 ml Gin; 15 ml Triple Sec

Gin and Cuban rum share the base, with lemon juice, triple sec and thyme syrup making a tart sour with an herbal edge. Shaken and served in a coupe; created by Rafa García Febles in New York in 2015.

Rafa García Febles created the Atabey in New York in 2015 as a variation on the Attaboy, a 1928 cocktail from Judge Jr.'s. It swaps in clear Cuban rum alongside dry gin, Cointreau and lemon juice, and the name pays tribute to Attabey, a deity revered by the Taíno people.
