Dry Shake (if using egg white)
Add light rum, aged rum, fresh lime juice, fresh pineapple juice, fresh orange juice, orgeat, simple syrup, egg white, and Angostura bitters into a cocktail shaker. Without ice, dry-shake vigorously for 15–20 seconds to build a foam.

Wet Shake
Add a generous scoop of ice to the shaker. Shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds until the shaker is very cold and well-aerated. If you didn't use egg white, combine all liquid ingredients and shake with ice for 12–15 seconds.

Strain & Serve
Discard ice from the chilled serving glass if used. Double-strain the cocktail into the chilled coupe or over fresh ice in a rocks/highball glass, depending on preference. The Tropic Sour can be served 'up' (no ice) in a coupe or 'on the rocks' over fresh ice.

Finish
Dash one additional Angostura bitters on the foam (if present) and garnish with a pineapple wedge and a mint sprig. Optionally grate a little nutmeg over the foam or float a thin lime wheel on top.
