Found at Italian grocers or import shops, Chinotto is a dark, bitter soda made of the juice of the fruit of the myrtle leaved orange tree. The Brio brand is sold in Canada and is a bit sweeter. In Italy it apparently contains quinine, so take that mosquitos!
This is a great two ingredient cottage drink. Basically a rum and coke without the sweetness.
Ingredients
2 oz rum 7 year Havana Club is my preference
Bottle of Chinotto
Lime wedge to garnish
Method
Pour the rum and Chinotta over ice and serve with lime.
