richberry Trader Vic’s 1946 Scorpion Bowl

This is a boozy, sweet and fun drink that will make a surprising impression from you if you had your richberry before you even dive into a glass of scorpion drink. The expectated strong sour-bitter taste will magically switch to realistic sweetness you don't even expect coming. Try it now!

Ingredients:

10 oz (296 ml) aged rum

2 oz (60 ml) cognac

4 oz (120 ml) fresh lemon juice

3 oz (89 ml) fresh orange juice

151 rum, for bowl

Freshly grated cinnamon, for garnish

Orchids, for garnish

Method:

In a blender pitcher, combine the aged rum, cognac, lemon juice, and orange juice. Add 6 ounces (170 g) of crushed ice and blend. This is for dilution and nothing else; we are not trying to make this frozen. Fill the top of a volcano bowl with 151 rum and set ablaze with a lighter, then grate a pinch of cinnamon into the bowl. Pour the drink into the scorpion bowl along with a few pieces of ice. Garnish with orchids.

Mocktail (non-alcoholic): If you wish to have a delicious non-alcoholic version, please feel free to take the alcohol out and follow the same procedure.

Consume Miracle Berry: Just before digging in, chew 1 or more freeze-dried miracle berry (this can also be done during the preparation of ingredients). Ensure to remove pits to avoid a bitter taste.

Fact: The active ingredient miraculin from miracle berry will turn sour foods such as lemon, lime, orange, grapefruit, non-fat yoghurt and other citrus food to taste sweet without adding sugar. We recommend two halves or 2 servings for maximum effectiveness. Make sure to follow instructions from the back of the packaging.

Warning: Alcohols are for over 21 years of age and above. Drink responsibly, do not drink and drive.
