Method

Shake

1

Combine and chill

Add the dark rum, fresh lime juice, simple syrup, and angostura bitters into a cocktail shaker. Fill the shaker with the 6 ice cubes.

2

Shake

Secure the shaker lid and shake vigorously for 10–12 seconds, until the outside of the shaker is well chilled and slightly frosted.

3

Strain over ice

Fill a highball or Collins glass with approximately 1 cup of fresh ice. Double-strain the shaken contents into the glass to remove small ice shards and any pulp.

4

Top with Malta

Gently pour 6 oz of chilled Malta over the strained cocktail. Stir once gently with a bar spoon to integrate the Malta without losing all carbonation. Taste and, if you prefer sweeter, add up to 0.25 oz more simple syrup and stir gently.

Garnish & Serve

5

Garnish the glass with a lime wheel or wedge on the rim and optionally a sprig of mint tucked beside the lime. Serve immediately with a straw or short stirring spoon.
