This week we are featuring a riff on the classic "Americano" cocktail. Fun Fact: the Americano was originally known as the "Milano-Torino" when it was created in the 1860s due to its two main ingredients' origins, Campari from Milan and sweet vermouth from Turin.
In 2019 Death & Co. LA's Tyson Buhler turned the drink on its head by losing the vermouth and adding Wray & Nephew Rum which offers rich depth of flavor with notes of tropical fruit, spice, and a hint of oak as well as grapefruit soda which rounds out the drink with its fruit-forward effervescence.
(Originally published 9/8/23)
1 oz. Wray & Nephew Rum

4 oz. Grapefruit Soda
Pinch of Salt
Grapefruit half wedge (we used half an orange wheel)
Fill your Hybrid Cocktail Glass with ice, then add Campari and Rum.
Top with Grapefruit Soda and stir gently to combine.
Sprinkle salt on top of the drink and garnish with half a grapefruit wedge (we used an orange wheel).
