Jasper’s Secret Mix

September 10, 2015 Ingredients Tarus

Required for Jasper’s cocktails, this is the “secret” mix that makes these rum drinks so special.

cocktail

  • Juice of 12 limes
  • 1.50 cups sugar
  • 1.25 ounces [Angostura Bitters][1]
  • 0.50 whole nutmeg, grated

Stir the ingredients together in a mixing vessel until the sugar dissolves. Let steep in the refrigerator for at least two hours.

I used a Ball jar to mix and store this ingredient. That way I can easily just shake it when I’m ready to make a drink.
