Falernum is a sweet, syrupy liqueur originating from the Caribbean, particularly associated with Barbados. It is typically made from a blend of lime juice, sugar, and various spices, such as cloves and almonds. The flavor profile is often described as tropical and aromatic, making it a popular ingredient in cocktails. This liqueur is commonly used in tiki drinks and other tropical cocktails, adding a unique sweetness and complexity. Falernum can be enjoyed on its own, but it is most frequently mixed into beverages like the Mai Tai or Zombie, enhancing their flavor with its distinctive notes.
