Drink type: Nightcap
Glassware: Old Fashion
Mixing: Shaken
1 oz Cream
1 oz Cream de Cacao
1 oz Xtabentún
Story: Xtabentun is a liquor that Ellen and I were introduced to on our honeymoon and as you can guess from the name we when to Aventura Spa Palace. Generally we like Xtabentun as a sipping drink but I thought that I would try it as a nightcap. The taste of the honey come out more and the anise become more of secondary flavour.
Rating: Since This is the first drink posted, I’m an still working out the kinks in the scoring system.
Ellen: She is not a big fan of cream based drinks but she found the flavour in this drink.
Me: I like nightcaps and this one will certainly be one of the ones that I will drink!

As I have already posted I am taking a personal interest course in Bartending to go along with my bar setup (first picture). As part of my final exam I need to:
- Modify four existing cocktails to ( the best two will be selected and graded)
- make it cheaper (ie replace Grand Marnier with Triple Sec)
- easier to make ( Reduce the number of liquors, thereby making it faster)
- Create 4 original drinks:
- 1 Shooter
- 1 Short cocktail
- 1 Cocktail
- 1 my choice.
So over the last few weeks I have already started this process, Ellen and I have been testing all of the creations. :-)
To help me remember some of these drinks, I will blogging them. Both the ones that work and the ones that don’t work. In either case I will tell you why it does or doesn’t work.
BTW, No, I’m not going for Tom Cruise in Cocktail but I now know how to do the flaming Coffee’s! :-)
