Cocktail

Method

Cocktail

  1. 1

    Prepare glass

    If you prefer the cocktail chilled without ice dilution, place a coupe or chilled cocktail glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes. Alternatively, fill the serving glass with ice to chill while you mix the drink, then discard the ice before pouring.

  2. 2

    Measure ingredients

    Measure 2 oz white rum, 3 tsp (about 1 tbsp) fresh lime juice, 1 oz fresh grapefruit juice, 1 tsp maraschino liqueur, and 1 tsp simple syrup into a cocktail shaker or mixing tin.

  3. 3

    Add ice and shake

    Fill the shaker with about 1 cup of ice, cap it, and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the outside of the shaker is frosty and well chilled. This chills and lightly dilutes the drink to balance acidity and alcohol.

  4. 4

    Strain

    Double-strain (using a Hawthorne strainer and a fine mesh strainer if available) into the chilled coupe or cocktail glass. If you prefer served on ice, pour over 3 fresh ice cubes in an old-fashioned glass instead.

  5. 5

    Garnish and serve

    Express a grapefruit twist over the surface to release oils, rub it on the rim if desired, and drop it into the drink. Alternatively garnish with a thin lime wheel. Serve immediately.
