This was a cocktail that I created to Combier for their cocktail competition showcasing their liquors. I wanted to create something fun that would beautifully showcase the sweet and delicate summer flavors of apricots. Instantly I gravitated towards something tiki adjacent and BOOM I thought Mai Tai. Rather than using curaçao I swapped for Combier’s Liquer de Abricot and chose Cognac to help bring out those sweeter fruit notes. If you make this please let me know how you like it, I am open to any and all critiques. Cheers!
