Method
Cocktail
Chill glass
Place a coupe or chilled cocktail glass in the freezer or fill it with ice water while you prepare the drink (about 2–3 minutes) to ensure the cocktail stays cool.
Combine ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, add ice to fill about two-thirds of the shaker. Pour in 2 oz rum, 0.5 oz dry vermouth, 0.5 oz orange curaçao, 0.25 oz grenadine, and 0.25 oz freshly squeezed lime juice.
Shake
Secure the shaker lid and shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds until the outside of the shaker is well-chilled and slightly frosted. This both chills and lightly dilutes the cocktail for balance.
Strain and serve
Discard the ice or water from the chilled glass. Double-strain the cocktail into the chilled coupe or cocktail glass using a Hawthorne or fine mesh strainer to remove small ice shards and pulp.
Garnish
Express the oils of an orange twist over the drink by holding the twist skin-side down over the cocktail and giving it a firm squeeze, then gently rub the rim with the twist and drop it into the glass as garnish.
Serve immediately. Enjoy responsibly.
