The Spaniard — a wonderfully cozy, cluttered, friendly pub in Belfast, Northern Ireland — has a fine assortment of rums and a winning way with rum-based cocktails. I’ve had many excellent daiquiris there, but I can also vouch for the Rumpolitan, the bar's alternative to a Cosmo. The Clément Créole Shrubb orange liqueur contributes a subtle, welcome note of bitterness and a flash of spice. —Rosie Schaap

Can substitute Curaçao fit the Shrub

I made a variation of this drink with what I had on hand. I used triple sec instead of Shrubb, and pomegranate juice instead of cranberry. Very good and easy!
