x The Sauceress
Makes one cocktail
• 1 oz White Rum
• .5 oz Dark Rum
• .5 oz Damiana Liqueur
• 1 oz Coco Lopez (guilty pleasure!)
• .75 oz Jasmine Syrup (recipe below)
• 8 dashes El Guapo® Polynesian Kiss Bitters
• .5 oz Mezcal
• .5 oz Grapefruit Liqueur
• Small squeeze of fresh lime
• Exotic edible flowers, to garnish

Combine all ingredients except lime and bitters in a mixing glass sans ice. Stir well to combine, that Coco Lopez can be thick! Strain into a glass filled with crushed or nugget ice. Top off with bitters and a small squeeze of lime. Garnish with exotic edible flowers before serving. Cheers!
