Cocktail
Prepare cocktail
Add 2 oz Captain Morgan Original Spiced Rum, 0.5 oz fresh lime juice, 0.5 oz simple syrup and 0.25 oz orange liqueur (if using) into a cocktail shaker.
Add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters to the shaker.
Fill the shaker with ice (about 1 cup) and secure the lid.
Shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds, until the shaker is cold to the touch and well chilled.
If you want a longer, lighter drink, briefly top with 1 oz club soda after pouring (optional).
Double-strain (if desired) into a chilled rocks glass over fresh ice, or fine-strain into a coupe for a straight-up serve.
Garnish & Serve
Garnish with a lime wheel or wedge on the rim and optionally a mint sprig slapped between your hands to release aroma, then place on top.
Serve immediately. Encourage guests to give the drink a gentle stir if club soda was added.
