Banana + rum are definitely a winning combo! 2 variations I've made and enjoyed a lot:
BANANA ANARCHY (from Reddit user u/thejustice32): 1.5 oz white rum, .5 oz Smith & Cross, .75 oz Tempus Fugit banana liqueur, .25 oz demerara gum syrup, 4 dashes [Scrappy's] chocolate bitters, 1 dash coffee bitters (or sub 1 bar spoon coffee liqueur), 3 drops saline. Stir with ice and strain over large ice cube in chilled rocks glass.
BANANERAC (from Death & Co.): absinthe (rinse), 1 oz PF 1840 Cognac, 1 oz Old Overholt rye, .5 oz Giffard Banane du Brésil (I use TF), .5 tsp demerara gum syrup, 1 dash Bitter Truth Aromatic Bitters (or Ango), lemon twist for garnish. Rinse (or spritz) rocks glass with absinthe then proceed as above, expressing lemon twist over finished drink.
This is all very timely as I've just made some (delicious) Banana infused rum based on the Banana Justino recipe in Dave Arnold's Liquid Intelligence.
