🥃

Shake Coca Leaf Liqueur (Cocalero Clasico), Overproof Rum, Velvet Falernum, Pineapple Juice with ice. Strain into a coupe.

I had been searching for an excuse to use my long-forgotten bottle of Cocalero. After experimenting with the Improved Chartreuse Swizzle, I figured that adding more Overproof Rum could balance out the weaker yet still green-tinted Cocalero replacing Chartreuse. The name Charlatan's Swizzle reflects its ability to visually mimic its original inspiration while using a less prestigious ingredient. Plus, CHARlatan and CHARtreuse share a clever connection.
