History

Distinctive fino sherry notes recall a Honeysuckle Daiquiri. Honey and lemon juice combine brilliantly, smoothed and made frothy by egg white.

James Crinson created this cocktail at LaLaLand Lounge Bar in Wanaka, winning the 2016 New Zealand Bacardí Legacy competition. Crinson states, "I moved to Wanaka to find my place in the world, my passion and direction. Just as Don Facundo found his calling refining the rum-making process, I've found mine in hospitality, making cocktails. Te Anaka is my Legacy cocktail and my interpretation of the place I now call home, Wanaka, inspired by both the produce around me and by the flavour profile of Bacardí Carta Blanca. Te Anaka is my way of sharing this beautiful place, my home, with the world and showing people everywhere that they, too, can create paradise and enjoy Wanaka."
