Shaken · Coupe · Lime wheel to garnish
Ingredients
- 60mlLight RumThe Real McCoy 3 Year recommended
- 22.5mlLime Juicefreshly squeezed
- 15mlSimple Syrupsemi-rich, 1.5:1
Method
- 1
Squeeze your limes now, not earlier. Lime juice starts losing its edge within the hour and this is the drink where you'll taste it most.
- 2
Add the rum, lime juice and syrup to your shaking tin.
- 3
Add ice and shake hard for 10-12 seconds. Really commit to it, there are only three ingredients here and the shake is doing the dilution, the chilling and the texture all at once.
- 4
Double strain into a chilled coupe. Get the glass in the freezer before you start, there's no ice in the finished drink so the glass is the only thing keeping it cold.
- 5
Garnish with a lime wheel.
