The journeys of Donn Beach inspired this cocktail. From Donn's roots in New Orleans, we start with bourbon. As his travels took him to the Caribbean, we add the rum and spices. And as he sets up shop in Souther California, we add the fresh citrus and honey. At the Mai Kai in Ft Lauderdale, Florida, ex-Don the Beachcomber's bartender Mariano Licudine invented one of his most famous drinks, TWhe Black Magic, which uses coffee and citrus. Inspired by The Black Magic, we add Bittermens New Orleans Coffee liqueur, which brings ups full circle to Donn's original home.
