The XYZ cocktail is a classic blend made with white rum, Cointreau, and fresh lemon juice. Its name, “XYZ,” refers to the last letters of the alphabet, symbolizing the final stage or a state of perfection—a cocktail that doesn’t need anything more.
Originating in the early 20th century, XYZ is beloved for its simple formula and exquisite balance. Bright lemon cuts through first, followed by the soft orange notes of Cointreau, and it all finishes with the smooth sweetness of rum.
This is a cocktail that delivers sophistication without complexity—ideal for both beginners and seasoned enthusiasts alike.
