History

A light rum sour is finished with a float of pungent pot still rum.

Adapted from a recipe created in 1971 by Wilfred Sands while he was bartending at the Lyford Cay Club in New Providence, Bahamas. Wilfred Sands apparently made the drink at the request of a club member who desired a short rum cocktail that was not too sweet.
