Method
Cocktail
- 1
Prepare glass
Fill a highball or Collins glass with ice cubes until nearly full (about 1 cup of ice).
- 2
Add lime juice
Pour 1/2 oz fresh lime juice over the ice. This brightens and balances the drink — optional but recommended.
- 3
Top with ginger beer
Slowly pour about 4 oz Cock 'n Bull ginger beer over the ice and lime juice. Pour gently to preserve carbonation.
- 4
Float the rum
Carefully pour 2 oz dark rum over the back of a spoon or down the side of the glass so it floats on top of the ginger beer, creating the signature dark layer.
- 5
Garnish and serve
Gently give the drink a slight stir if the guest prefers mixed; otherwise leave layers and serve with a lime wedge on the rim. Serve with a straw or cocktail stirrer and a napkin.
