Cocktail

Method

Cocktail

1

Prepare glass

Select a double old-fashioned glass or a tiki mug. Fill the glass halfway with crushed ice to chill while you build the cocktail.

2

Measure and combine

In a cocktail shaker, add 2 oz dark/aged rum, 0.5 oz overproof (or Demerara) rum, 0.75 oz fresh lime juice, 0.5 oz fresh grapefruit juice, 0.5 oz orgeat, 0.25 oz simple syrup, and 2 dashes Angostura bitters.

3

Shake

Add a handful of ice to the shaker (large cubes are fine). Shake vigorously for 10–12 seconds until the outside of the shaker feels cold and slightly frosty.

4

Strain and build

Discard the chilling ice from the glass if desired. Fill the glass with fresh crushed ice. Double-strain the cocktail from the shaker into the glass over the crushed ice to remove any pulp and small shards of ice.

5

Float overproof rum (optional)

If you prefer a layered presentation and did not include overproof rum in the shake, carefully pour 0.25–0.5 oz overproof rum over the back of a spoon to float on top of the crushed ice. (This step is optional; in this recipe half the overproof is built into the drink.)

6

Garnish and serve

Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint (lightly slap it between your palms to release aroma) and a lime wheel or grapefruit twist. Serve with a short straw and a napkin. Enjoy immediately while cold.
