Method
Cocktail
Prepare shaker
Add 6 ice cubes to a cocktail shaker to chill and create proper dilution.
Combine ingredients
Pour 2 oz añejo rum, 0.5 oz Cointreau, 0.75 oz fresh lime juice, 0.5 oz simple syrup, and 0.25 oz allspice dram (if using) into the shaker. Add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters.
Shake
Seal the shaker and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the shaker is very cold and slightly frosted, indicating proper dilution and aeration.
Strain
Double-strain the cocktail into a chilled coupe or rocks glass (over fresh large ice if you prefer it on the rocks) using a Hawthorne and fine mesh strainer to remove ice shards and any pulp.
Garnish & Finish
Express a lime peel over the drink to release oils and run the rim with the peel before dropping it in as a wheel or twist. Optionally grate a small pinch of fresh nutmeg over the top for a warm aromatic note.
