Meyers's 5 for 5

I helped a friend out and worked a dreadfully slow Sunday evening shift for her. Although I only saw 7 people in 7 hours I did come up with this concoction:


Meyers's 5 for 5

1 hefty pinch chinese 5 spice powder
1 oz. coco lopez
1 oz. lime juice
3 freshly torn up basil leaves
2 oz. Meyers's dark rum
heavy splash of pineapple juice

Muddle basil, chinese 5 spice powder, coco lopez, and lime juice gently. Fill with ice add rum. Cap and shake until frothy. Pour contents into pint glass and top with heavy splash of pineapple juice.
