Three Dots and a Dash’s Missionary’s Downfall

Julian Cox, Three Dots and a Dash | Chicago

At Chicago’s Three Dots and a Dash, Julian Cox puts a modern spin on the classic tiki drink, the Missionary’s Downfall, with. “I love the combination of bone-dry rum and sweeter flavors like peach and honey,” he says of the combination of rum, créme de pêche, mint and pineapple. Though the mint is nitro-muddled at the bar for a modernist spin, a classic muddle works just as well when making the drink at home.
