Description
This individually-sized Scorpion was adapted by Jeff Berry and Annene Kaye for Beachbum Berry's Grog Log based on an original drink by Trader Vic from the 1950s. We can't get enough: it's tart and fresh, lightly sweet, and nicely spiked with a mixture of light Puerto Rican rum and brandy. Have fun with the garnishes: throw on the edible flowers, pineapple wedges, cherries, limes, lemons...or make a huge batch and serve it in a Scorpion or flaming Volcano bowl with lots of straws.
