Sour Cherry Dark and Stormy Cocktail

Sour Cherry Dark and Stormy Cocktail

By OcadoLifePublished on 16 October 2024A tart-sweet spin on a classic with lots of warming spice, this Sour Cherry Dark and Stormy Cocktail was created by bar owner and consultant Ryan Chetiyawardana – aka Mr Lyan. The cocktail base is a delectable mix of golden rum, dry sherry and sour cherry molasses, and this recipe makes a 70cl bottle of it – enough to create around 10 drinks. For easy storage and pouring, use a clean, empty wine bottle and a funnel.
