Ingredients

1

1 servings

  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup tamarind pulp
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 oz tamarind syrup, plus more for dipping
  • ¾ oz fresh lime juice
  • 1 ¾ oz pineapple infused rum
  • ½ oz pineapple juice
  • 1 oz blue curaçao
  • 1 cup crushed ice
  • ¾ oz aquafaba, (canned chickpea liquid)
  • ¼ cup rainbow sugar, for garnish
  • 2 dashes angostura bitters
  • 1 pineapple leaf, for garnish
  • 1 dehydrated pineapple wheel, for garnish
  • 1 orange peel, for garnish

Instructions

  • Make the tamarind syrup: In a medium saucepan, combine the water and tamarind pulp. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook for 3–5 minutes. Add the sugar and continue boiling for 30 seconds more, until the sugar dissolves. Strain into a glass jar, discarding the tamarind solids, and let cool before using. The syrup will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
  • Make the cocktail: Add the tamarind syrup, lime juice, pineapple-infused rum, pineapple juice, and blue curaçao to a cocktail shaker and fill with ½ cup (70 G) ice. Shake vigorously to combine. Strain the mixture into a tall glass. Discard the ice used for shaking and return the cocktail to the shaker, along with the aquafaba. Dry shake for 30 seconds, until foamy.
  • Add the rainbow sugar to a small plate. Dip the rim of a hurricane glass in tamarind syrup, then carefully roll the rim in the rainbow sugar.
  • Fill the glass with the remaining ½ cup crushed ice and shake the angostura bitters over the ice. Strain the cocktail into the glass and garnish with the pineapple leaf, dehydrated pineapple wheel, and orange peel.
  • Enjoy!
