La Savane

0

A stirred drink that pairs mezcal and rhum agricole with Cocchi Americano and Swedish punsch, lifted by orange bitters and an orange peel. Created by Frederic Yarm in Boston in 2021.

Frederic Yarm created La Savane in Boston in 2021, inspired by the Metexa in the 1937 Café Royal Cocktail Book, which combined Lillet, tequila and Swedish punsch. Yarm replaced the tequila with mezcal and rhum agricole and adjusted the proportions so the drink reads more as a cocktail than an aperitif. The name comes from a garden and park on Martinique.
