Bartender Says: "This unusual use of fresh beet juice and house-made falernum is essentially a tiki drink with winter flavors. The name comes from the phrase 'imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.' The original point of inspiration was the flavor of Coca-Cola— balanced, complex flavor with earthy and floral components." —Troy Sidle, Partner
