Cocktail

Method

Cocktail

1

Prepare cocktail

Chill a coupe or Nick & Nora glass by filling it with ice water; set aside. Add 2 oz Diplomático Reserva Exclusiva, 0.75 oz fresh lime juice, 0.5 oz simple syrup, 0.25 oz orange curaçao, and 2 dashes Angostura bitters into a cocktail shaker. Fill the shaker with ice (about 6 medium cubes).

2

Shake

Seal the shaker and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the outside of the shaker feels very cold and small ice shards form — this both chills and dilutes the drink to balance the rum's sweetness.

3

Strain

Dump the ice water from the chilled glass and double-strain the cocktail into the glass using a Hawthorne and fine-mesh strainer to remove ice shards and any pulp for a clean texture.

Garnish

4

Express the oils of a fresh orange twist over the surface of the cocktail by holding the twist over the drink and giving it a quick fold, then rim the glass briefly with the peel and drop it in as garnish. If using a dehydrated orange wheel, place it gently on the surface. Optionally grate a small pinch of fresh nutmeg over the top for an aromatic finish.
