Questions, answered
What is allspice dram?
A Jamaican liqueur flavored with allspice berries. It tastes like clove, cinnamon and nutmeg at once, so a quarter ounce goes a long way.
Which grenadine should I use?
A real pomegranate grenadine, not the bright red corn-syrup kind. Or make your own: simmer equal parts pomegranate juice and sugar until the sugar dissolves.
What does Fee Brothers Foamer do?
It's a vegan foaming agent that gives shaken drinks a silky head, like egg white without the egg.
