Cocktail

Mix and chill
Add 2 oz Ritual rum, 0.75 oz Giffard Aperitif, 1.5 oz fresh pineapple juice, 0.5 oz fresh lime juice, 0.25 oz simple syrup, and 2 dashes Angostura bitters into a cocktail shaker.

Shake
Fill the shaker with ice (about 1 cup) and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the shaker is well chilled and slightly frosted.

Strain
Double-strain (through the shaker’s strainer and a fine mesh strainer if available) into a chilled coupe or Nick & Nora glass to remove small ice shards and any pulp.
Garnish & Serve
- 4
Thread a pineapple wedge and lime wheel onto a pick or place them on the glass rim. Slap the mint sprig between your palms to awaken its aroma and either rest it on the drink or tuck it behind the garnish.

Serve immediately. Optionally, add a final drop or two of Angostura on the foam/top for aromatic lift.
