Ingredients
- 25ml golden rum
- 1 tbsp orange curacao
- 2 tsp orgeat syrup
- 25ml lime juice
- 2 tsp sugar syrup
- ice cubes
- crushed ice
- 25ml dark rum
To garnish
- wedge of pineapple, a lime wheel or a cocktail cherry (or all three!)
Method
- STEP 1
Pour the golden rum, curacao, orgeat, lime juice and sugar syrup into a cocktail shaker with a handful of ice cubes. Shake until the outside of the shaker feels really cold.
- STEP 2
Fill a tumbler with crushed ice then strain the cocktail over it. Slowly pour the dark rum over the top so it stains the top of the drink a rusty gold.
- STEP 3
Garnish with fruit like pineapple, lime and cocktail cherries if you like.
