Saturn
Saturn: Gin, Lemon juice, Passion fruit syrup, Orgeat and Falernum. Served in a tiki mug.
The Spec
Method
Flash-blend: add all ingredients to a blender with about 3/4 cup (one scoop) of crushed ice and blend on high a few seconds until smooth, then pour unstrained into a chilled glass. (Traditional Beachbum Berry method. Some sources shake-and-strain over fresh crushed ice as an alternative, but the flash-blend is canonical.)
Served in a tiki mug. Garnish: a lemon twist bent into a ring around a maraschino cherry, secured with a cocktail pick — evoking saturn's rings and planet.
Spec held as sourced — Verified classic. The house never guesses a drink.
