Five Foot Assassin
Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.58 / 5
The Five Foot Assassin is a tropical cocktail with a complex flavor profile that artfully blends the warm, rich notes of dark and spiced rum with the tangy zest of lime juice. The incorporation of sugar syrup, coconut cream, and mango puree adds a delightful sweetness and creamy texture that perfectly complements the boldness of the rums. A significant dash of Angostura Bitters introduces a layer of aromatic spice, while the garnish of freshly grated nutmeg on top further accentuates the cocktail's exotic and spicy character. Served in a lowball glass, the Five Foot Assassin offers a multi-sensory drinking experience that is as visually appealing as it is delicious, evoking a sense of tropical escapism with every sip.
