“My household is from the countryside in Puerto Rico and that i wished to seize a little bit of that vibe with some tropical parts. On the island, moonshine known as “pitorro”, and keenness fruit (what we name párcha) is a well-liked taste. Rum with párcha is definitely my go to drink when im there, so naturally i wished to include that in my recipe. I wished that very same scorching summer season day vibe, however tropical and barely fancier with a clearer liquid and a transparent ice dice.”
