Drunk in the August Sun

Dan Watson, Porco Lounge & Tiki Room | Cleveland, OH

Dan Watson’s drier take on the Piña Colada leans on Wray & Nephew and dry sherry to balance the sweetness of both pineapple juice and Coco Lopez cream of coconut. “I love how the Wray & Nephew dries out the Lopez in this drink,” explains Watson.
