1 oz Mezcal (Peloton de la Muerte)
1 oz Pineapple Rum (Planteray Stiggins')
1/2 oz Amaro Sfumato
1/2 oz Crème de Banane (Tempus Fugit)
1 dash Absinthe (6 drop St. George)
Stir with ice and strain into an old fashioned glass with a large ice cube.

I became inspired by the banana-Sfumato combination in the
Tarantula and
Sfumato Swizzle and began scheming. Soon, crème de banane made me think of pineapple rum and Sfumato suggested mezcal to me. When the mix tasted a bit dark, I added in a dash of absinthe to brighten flavor balance. For a name, I dubbed this one Illegal Dance Moves named after a double IPA from the sadly departed Mystic Brewery. In the glass, the Illegal Dance Moves set up a roast, vegetal, fruity, smoke, and banana aroma. Next, roasted and tropical notes on the sip slid into rum, smoky, vegetal, and caramelized banana-pineapple flavors on the swallow.
