The Portorico builds on a dry gin foundation but takes an unexpected tropical detour. The blanc vermouth provides a subtle floral sweetness, while the overproof Jamaican rum adds funk and heat that cuts through the botanicals. A touch of banana liqueur rounds out the edges, lending a creamy, fruity undertone without tipping into tiki territory. The result is crisp and spirit-forward with a lingering warmth.
