Joanna is drinking: Irish Coffee at Dead Rabbit
Zach is drinking: Adami "Bosco di Gica" Prosecco DOCG
Adam is drinking: Old Fashioned at Callicoon Hills
Joanna’s take on Dave Arnold’s Banana Justino
Ingredients
1 750-ml bottle of rum (I used Diplomático Mantuano)
3 yellow bananas (not too green or too brown/ripe)
½ teaspoon vanilla bean paste (optional)
2 grams Pectinex Ultra SP-L
Limes
Coconut water
Whole star anise
Technique
Make the banana rum
Add the rum, bananas, vanilla bean paste if using, and Pectinex to a blender and blend for a minute or two until completely smooth. Keep the rum bottle for decanting later. Pour the mixture into a sealable container and leave on the countertop for about a week, until the mixture has fully, visibly separated. Slowly pour the mixture through a coffee filter (I used a Chemex) to clarify. Pour the extracted liquid (your banana rum) back into the original bottle. 
Make the Banana Justino
Freeze coconut water into large ice cubes. In an Old Fashioned glass, add an ice cube and pour over the banana rum (about 2 ounces); stir briefly. Squeeze in a wedge of lime and garnish with a whole star anise.
