Created at the now-closed Lion Lion in New York, the Away Colors is a simple stirred cocktail that’s ideal for after-dinner drinking. Taking its name from a soccer idiom for playing away from a team’s home, the recipe’s ingredients, like añejo rum and banana liqueur, find themselves across continents and meridians.
