The Miri-Miri, so named because it is served in a coconut, is made of fresh pineapple juice, infused coconut rum, and hibiscus. In order to make this cocktail the best ally for sunny days in the Maldives or to make the most of a dreamy sunset, the sweetness is balanced with watered-down ginger.

The famous candies sold since 1915 in a store called La Violetera served as the inspiration for the very traditional Madrilenian cocktail known as La Violetera.

The traditional Manhattan served at The Westin New York contains Benedictine for a hint of honey and a mixture of Angostura and Orange Bitters for balance and a touch of bitterness.
