Ingredients

Instructions

Banana Rum:

  • 750 ml Gosling's Black Seal
  • 2 over-ripe bananas (no green, significant brown)
  • Bake the bananas at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes or until they burst.
  • They should be completely and uniformly brown at this point.
  • As soon as the bananas are cool enough to handle split them open.
  • Mash them up with a fork.
  • Add them to the rum.
  • Let sit for a few hours.
  • Strain through a fine mesh strainer.
  • You can strain again through a coffee filter but the final drink is thick enough that I find in unnecessary.
  • This has never spoiled on be.
  • I've had bottles as old as 6 months or so kept unrefrigerated.
  • Currents & Coils #5
  • Add all ingredients with ice in a cocktail shaker.
  • Shake for 15-20 seconds.
  • Single strain into a pilsner glass (photo was from an event where I had to serve in plastic cups unfortunately) full of crushed or nugget ice.
  • Place the banana chips on top.
  • Add the freshly-grated nutmeg.
