Method
Cocktail
Prepare glass
Select a highball glass (about 8–12 oz). Fill the glass with cubed ice to the top so the drink will stay cold and won't dilute too quickly.
Add rum and lime
Pour 2 oz light rum over the ice. Squeeze the lime wedge directly into the glass to release about 0.5 oz fresh lime juice, then drop the spent wedge into the glass if you like extra aroma.
Garnish and serve
Give the drink a final gentle stir, garnish with an extra lime wedge on the rim (optional), and serve immediately with a straw or stirrer.
