Three Dots and a Dash from Episode 62
About the Recipe
Originally invented by Don Beach, this refreshing Tiki cocktail gives a nod to WW2 with its clever 3 dots and a dash garnish (the three cherries and lime slice representing the morse code for V for victory).
We were inspired by this recipe from liquor.com. Ours is a simplified version, using what we had in our liquor larders:
2 ounces spiced rum
1/4 ounces velvet falernum
1/2 ounce honey syrup (equal parts honey and water)
1 lime, juiced (save a small piece for the garnish)
1 small orange, juiced
3 dashes angustora bitters
3 maraschino cherries, for garnish
For garnish: spear a small piece of lime for the dash, then spear 3 maraschino cherries on spear.
Fill a cocktail shaker with ice, pour in everything but the garnish, shake for 30 seconds, then pour into cocktail glass and lay garnish over top of glass.
