History

This drink is rust-coloured, bittersweet, featuring cachaça and elderflower.

Jeffrey Morgenthaler created this drink in 2009 in Portland, Oregon, USA. His initial recipe specified a "generous twist of lemon" instead of orange. On JeffreyMorgenthaler.com, he states that the cocktail was "Inspired in part by a gorgeous cocktail created by my good friend Gonçalo de Souza Monteiro, the Comte de Sureau."
