Brandy Crusta
3 shared ingredients
Cable Car
🥃 Serve in: Coupe Glass
Spiced rum meets orange curacao and lemon juice here, with a rich pour of sugar syrup and a silky egg white top, finished with a cinnamon-sugar rim. Invented at San Francisco's Starlight Room in the 1990s as an homage to the Sidecar, it swaps cognac for spiced rum for a warmer, more autumnal profile. That cinnamon rim adds a spiced aromatic note with every sip. A great modern riff for anyone who loves the Sidecar format but wants something a bit richer.
