History
Named for this drink's approachable character and The Persuaders!, a 1970s British TV series starring Tony Curtis and Roger Moore, made brilliant by John Barry's theme music. This cocktail uses rum's affinity for pineapple juice and is Daiquiri-like, but with white wine's acidity instead of lime juice. Chinotto liqueur provides subtle chocolaty citrus complexity, with a touch of rich vanilla liqueur adding balancing sweetness.
