Ernest Hemingway is well known as a literary genius, gentleman adventurer, and cocktail imbiber. Lesser known is the fact that he was a firm believer in drinking local; both he and the characters of his assorted works invariably looked to the local culture for their choice in drink.
In honor of Papa and his spirited legacy, our friends at Crescendo Organic Spirits, producers of organic Limoncello, Arancello (orange) and Limecello, have created this delightfully refreshing cocktail. So grab your dogeared copy of the Snows of Kilimanjaro and enjoy the work of genius!
