Our Falernum goes back to the roots of Falernum. Falernum (pronounced fah-learn-um) is a sweet syrup used in Caribbean and tropical drinks.
It contains aromas of almond, chili, ginger and/or cloves, and lime. It is used in cocktails in a manner similar to orgeat syrup or can be drunk "on the rocks".
Some reports date the origins of falernum back to the 18th century. In the literary magazine All the Year Round, then owned by Charles Dickens Jr., an unnamed author wrote about falernum in 1892, describing it as "a curious liqueur, composed of rum and lime juice." The earliest known mention in bar manuals appears to be from the 1930s.
