Parisian Blonde
From page 134 Mr. Boston Official Bartender's Guide, 1984 Edition.
3/4 Oz Light Cream
3/4 Oz Triple Sec (LeRoux)
3/4 Oz Jamaica Rum (Myers's Dark)
Shake with ice and strain into cocktail glass
Today was another really nice day; sure hope the hurricane doesn't turn this way!
I chose a Parisian Blonde for the cocktail this afternoon. I thought the dark rum would really flavor the drink but it was quite mellow and drinkable, more like I expected than some of the sweeter recipes I've tried recently. The dark rum flavor came through very slightly. It wasn't a favorite cocktail but we enjoyed it. Mix one and try it; it's worth a shot!
