Añejo rum stirred with sweet vermouth, apricot brandy and a little triple sec, with Angostura bitters adding spice. Rich, fruity and spirit-forward, with a maraschino cherry in the glass. Created by Frederic Yarm in Boston in 2023.

Frederic Yarm of Boston created the East Harlem in 2023, after a conversation one night about the Periodista's ties to Boston prompted experiments with that recipe. Built around apricot liqueur, it combines elements of the 1940s Cuban classic with Julie Reiner's Slope and ends up as a Rum Manhattan variation. The name refers to East Harlem's strong Cuban connections in New York City.
