Background & History
"This cocktail is inspired by a vintage British drink called the Treacle, which is a rum old-fashioned topped with a layer of apple juice. The Black Strap rum float in my version is almost like topping the drink with pancake syrup: first you smell the sum's massive molasses aromas, then the acidic Pineau des Charentes, an aperitif made with grape must and cognac, cuts right through it." - Tyson Buhler, Death & Co
