Nutty Like a Fruitcake
This tiki twist on the familiar flavors of fruitcake comes from Mindy Kucan at Hale Pele in Portland, Oregon.
Orange and spice are always a welcome addition to our holiday cocktail menu, and Nutty Like a Fruitcake makes us think of holidays spent drinking rum with the uncles, listening to stories into the wee hours of the night.
