White Claw Recipe

Prepare glass

Fill a highball or Collins glass with ice cubes until about 3/4 full to chill the glass and keep the drink cold.

Build base

If using rum, pour 1 oz white rum over the ice. Add 0.5 oz fresh lime juice and 0.25 oz simple syrup. Stir gently once to combine the spirits and citrus.

Top with seltzer

Open one can of Black Cherry & Mango hard seltzer and slowly pour it into the glass down the side to preserve carbonation. Pour until the glass is nearly full (about one can).

Finish and garnish

Give the drink one or two gentle stirs to marry flavors without flattening the seltzer. Thread 2 pitted black cherries on a pick and lay across the rim, add a thin mango slice and a lime wheel on the rim or float them in the drink.

Serve immediately with a straw or stirrer so the drink stays fizzy.

Combine 1 cup granulated sugar and 1 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and let cool. Store in the refrigerator in a sealed container up to 2 weeks. Use 0.25 oz per cocktail as noted above.
