I Love Lamp

Category: Tropical Cocktails

We love quality banana liqueur, we love Anchorman, and gosh darnit, we love I Love Lamp.

Invented by Jordan Brower in New York City, I Love Lamp is a perfect showpiece for an excellent banana liqueur. Giffard’s Banane du Bresil is our personal favorite.

Demerara rum is famed for its lush brown sugar flavors, and here it’s a perfect match for the rich banana-bread flavors of Banane du Bresil.

Brower calls for Angostura aromatic bitters. We’ve also tried with Bittermen’s Elemakule Tiki Bitters, and we loved the tropical flavors it imparted to the I Love Lamp.
