Method
Cocktail
Prepare glass
Fill a highball glass or Collins glass with cracked ice to chill while you build the drink.
Mix base
In a cocktail shaker, add 2 oz Kraken Spiced Rum, 1 oz freshly pressed lime juice, 0.5 oz simple syrup and 2 dashes Angostura bitters. Add a small handful of ice (not the glass ice) to the shaker.
Shake
Secure the shaker and shake vigorously for about 10–12 seconds until well chilled and slightly diluted.
Top with ginger beer
Gently top the drink with 4 oz Fentimans Ginger Beer. Stir once gently with a bar spoon to integrate the ginger beer without flattening its carbonation.
Garnish and finish
Garnish with a lime wheel on the rim and optionally a piece of candied ginger skewered on a pick. Serve with a straw if desired.
Serving note
Taste and adjust: if you prefer brighter citrus, add another 0.25 oz lime; for more sweetness, add up to 0.25 oz more simple syrup. The bitters add depth—do not overdo.
