Method
Cocktail
Prepare glass
Fill a highball or Collins glass with ice to chill while you assemble the cocktail (about 30–60 seconds).
Build the drink
Discard any excess meltwater from the glass if present. Add 2 oz Captain Morgan (dark spiced rum), 1/2 oz fresh lime juice, and 1/2 oz simple syrup into the chilled glass over fresh ice.
Top and finish
Top the mixture with about 4 oz ginger beer. Add 2 dashes Angostura bitters on top. Gently stir once or twice with a bar spoon to integrate ingredients without flattening the ginger beer.
Garnish and serve
Garnish with a lime wheel or wedge on the rim and an optional mint sprig slapped between your palms to release aroma. Serve immediately with a straw or stirrer.
