Getaway Car | Cocktail Party

Getaway Car

The Getaway Car, from Meaghan Dorman at The Raines Law Room in New York City, is one of our favorite ways to introduce folks to Ancho Reyes, a smoky ancho chili liqueur.

Dorman calls for Appleton Reserve, but it’s lovely with any aged rum you like. It really shines with fresh pineapple juice, but we’ve made plenty with the canned stuff and we enjoyed every glass.

The original recipe calls for plain old simple syrup, but if you have pineapple syrup it will be fantastic in the Getaway Car. Similarly, a pineapple rum like Plantation’s Stiggins’ Pineapple adds another layer of complexity.

Instructions

An awesome cocktail app with curated recipes

I'm shocked that there are no reviews listed for this app. I found it on reddit's cocktails forum. The drink list in this app is much shorter than in many of the other apps I've seen, but the quality and reliability of the recipes is much much higher. These are more like the drinks you would get at a good mixology bar instead of the drink equivalent of your aunt's jello fruit mold that people just "love." I much prefer a list of cocktails that are reliable, good and repeatable than a huge pile of garbage recipes. This app is great and delivers great, reliable cocktails.
