The Snake Hips Swizzle is a delicious concoction from Death & Co’s Joaquín Simó, with all the looks of a classic tiki drink. The flavor, though, is wholly unexpected: nutty sherry, sweet maple and cinnamon, and rich cognac and orange come together for a taste reminiscent of a lovely coffee cake.
Depending on the sherry you use (Simó calls for cream sherry, one of the lighter types of sweet sherry), the drink can pull quite sweet. If you don’t have a particularly sweet tooth, you might want to start with a little less maple syrup, and add more to taste.
