About The Ace of Spades
So there’s about 30 cocktails that go by this name that are all completely different. Empire Mixology acknowledges the 1930s version that originated at the NYC club called the Ace of Spades. I mean it sounds like the most original version right? This cocktail packs a wallop and is very spirit forward, however the creme de cacao adds a chocolatey hint of flavor.
Ingredients:
2 oz. Golden Rum
½ oz. White Creme de Cacao
½ oz. Lime Juice
½ tsp. Simple Syrup
4 Drops, I said Drops not Dashes of Angostura Bitters (optional)
