Build and shake
Add aged rum, orange curaçao, orgeat, fresh lime juice, and simple syrup into a cocktail shaker filled about halfway with ice. Shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds until well chilled.

Serve
Fill a double old-fashioned glass or tiki mug with crushed ice. Strain the shaken mixture over the crushed ice.

Dark rum float
Slowly pour the dark rum over the back of a spoon so it floats on top of the drink, creating a layered effect.

Garnish
Garnish with a fresh mint sprig (lightly slap between your palms to release aroma) and a lime wheel. Serve with a short straw and stirrer.

Muddle (optional)
If you prefer more texture, place a small pineapple chunk in the bottom of a shaker and gently muddle once to release extra juice. This step is optional; fresh juice works fine without muddling.
