Cobra's Fang
- A creation of Don the Beachcomber, most likely in 1937. An intoxicating mix of Guyanese and Jamaican rums, fruit juices, syrups and botanicals. Along with lime and orange juices, the Cobra’s Fang also includes a dash each of absinthe and Angostura bitters, which give the drink an added layer of complexity and botanicals.
