After returning from working the bar at Loyal Nine's Yacht Rock Sunday two weeks ago, I was still in the tropical mood. Therefore, I reached for Tiki Drinks: Tropical Cocktails for the Modern Bar and found the Spiced Park Swizzle. Once built, the drink offered mint, clove, and cinnamon aromas. Next, lime and grape flavors on the sip transitioned into grassy rum and nutty notes on the swallow. Finally, the Spice Park Swizzle ended with ginger and clove on the finish, and once the bitters garnish entered into the equation at the end, clove and cinnamon became dominant.
