The Top Banana is a stirred rum cocktail of light gold rum and banana liqueur with small measures of oloroso sherry, falernum and white crème de cacao.
The Top Banana is a modern cocktail. Its recipe pairs golden rum with banana liqueur, sherry, and falernum, treating banana as a serious cocktail flavor rather than a novelty.
45 ml light gold rum, 10 ml banana liqueur, and 5 ml each of oloroso sherry, falernum, and white crème de cacao. Orange, cardamom, and chocolate bitters are optional, a dash or two of each.
