Dickensian Villain
The Dickensian Villain is an inventive twist on the Old Fashioned template from Danielle Crouch and Allan Katz at Here’s Looking At You in Los Angeles.
The name is a reference to Plantation Pineapple Stiggins’ Fancy rum, a delicious pineapple rum named for the hard-drinking evangelist mooch in Charles Dickens’ The Pickwick Papers, who was described as having a particular fondness for the stuff.
Ingredients
- 1 part Rye whiskey
- 1 part Pineapple rum
- ¼ part Grenadine or Pomegranate molasses
- 1 tsp Mint fernet
Instructions
Add the ingredients to a short glass and top with ice – preferably one large cube or sphere. Stir until chilled. Express the oils from an orange twist over the drinks, and discard the twist.
