Method
Cocktail
- 1
Mix and chill
Add the white rum, green Chartreuse, fresh lime juice, falernum, pineapple juice, simple syrup, and Angostura bitters into a cocktail shaker. Fill the shaker with ice (about 1 cup) to properly chill and dilute the drink.
- 2
Shake
Seal the shaker and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds, until the outside of the shaker feels very cold and slightly frosted. This ensures proper dilution and integration of the bright citrus and herbal flavors.
- 3
Double strain
Using a Hawthorne strainer and a fine mesh strainer, double-strain the cocktail into a chilled coupe or Nick & Nora glass. Double-straining removes small ice chips and any pulp from the fresh lime juice for a smooth texture.

Serve
Place a lime wheel or wedge on the rim, and optionally tuck a small pineapple frond or mint sprig alongside it for aroma and visual appeal. Serve immediately.
Garnish
- 5
Before serving, express a lime peel over the drink (optional) by pinching the peel skin-side down to release oils, then drop the wheel into the glass. If using a mint sprig, gently slap it between your palms to release aromatics before placing it as garnish.
