Method
Cocktail
Combine ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, add 1 cup of cubed ice, 2 oz Bacardí Superior, 1 oz fresh lime juice, and 0.5 oz simple syrup.
Shake
Secure the shaker lid and shake vigorously for about 10–15 seconds, until the exterior of the shaker becomes very cold and slightly frosted.
Strain and serve
If serving over ice: discard the ice used to chill the glass (if you chilled the glass that way) and fill the serving glass with fresh ice. Strain the shaken mixture into the prepared glass. If serving straight up: double-strain into the chilled coupe or martini glass to remove ice shards.
Top (optional)
If you prefer a lighter, spritz-style drink, gently top the poured cocktail with about 1 oz club soda. Do not stir vigorously—just a gentle swirl to incorporate.
Garnish
Garnish with a lime wheel or wedge on the rim and, if desired, a sprig of mint slapped between your palms to release aroma and tucked into the drink.
Serve immediately while cold.
