Method
Cocktail Base
- 1
Juice and measure
Juice fresh limes to obtain 0.75 oz of lime juice. Measure dark rum, light rum, simple syrup, and falernum (if using) into a cocktail shaker.
- 2
Add bitters and ice
Add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters to the shaker. Fill the shaker about two-thirds full with ice (or add 3-4 large cubes).
- 3
Shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds until the outside of the shaker is cold and slightly frosted.
Mixer & Finish
- 4
Fill a Collins glass or tall highball with crushed ice (about 1 cup). Strain the shaken mixture over the crushed ice, leaving room at the top for soda.
- 5
Top with 2 oz club soda or sparkling water. Give it one gentle stir with a bar spoon to integrate the soda without flattening the carbonation.
- 6
Garnish with a sprig of mint and a lime wheel or wedge. Serve with a straw and enjoy.
