This is our first member created cocktail, not created by one of the founders. We are thrilled to feature Leif’s tasty cocktail as the first of our “member created” series.
A well known fan of all things Star Wars, Leif found a creative way to combine blueberries with an often overlook liqueur, Limon Rum Chata! Leif’s original recipe is served on the rocks with minimal straining. We also discovered that if you like a cocktail served “up” (no ice) you can modify this drink. No change in the recipe, just double strain into a chilled glass.
Thank you Leif for raising this glass for all of us to enjoy!! Cheers! And May the Force be with You!!!
