Make Rum Based Cocktail With Tinge Of Peach

There is one thing that I was very interested in portraying with this particular drink, and that was to show the diversity of MIDORI. Although a melon liqueur, I was very keen in seeing what could be created by incorporating ingredients that would transform the base flavour. So I turned to mixing with aged rum that would bring the richer characteristics of caramel and toffee to the mix, then another ingredient that would contribute a certain freshness and vibrancy. So after some trials I fell upon Ruby Red Grapefruit juice, which although a citrus, does have some faint sweeter tones that balance with the sour and bitterness that are an intrinsic factor of this particular juice. When put together and served in a tall glass I found that, indeed a new flavour had been created with these ingredients, something that had no correlation to its parts but the some of all parts. And that flavour was fresh peach, so this is why I decided to call this drink the Peach Fuzz.

Preparation:
20 ml (2/3 oz) Midori Liqueur
30 ml (1 oz) Light aged Rum
Top with Ruby Red Grapefruit Juice

Fill up half of the tall glass with ice.
Combine Midori, and Rum.
Fill up the glass with Ruby Red Grapefruit Juice, leaving a few space to fill it up with ice.
Stir with a long spoon.
Fill up with ice.
Garnish with Peach slices.
