Method
  1. 1

    Add 60ml white rum, 20ml honey syrup, and 20ml fresh lemon juice to a cocktail shaker.

  2. 2

    Fill the shaker with cubed ice and shake vigorously for 10–12 seconds until well chilled and thoroughly combined.

  3. 3

    Double-strain into a chilled coupe glass.

  4. 4

    Garnish with a lemon wheel or twist.

From the Bartender

Use a liquid honey syrup (2:1 honey to warm water) rather than raw honey - it incorporates far more smoothly into cold shaken drinks and ensures consistent sweetness every time. A double-strain through a fine-mesh sieve is recommended to catch any undissolved honey or ice chips.

Frosty and citrus-forward, with tart fresh lime and clean white rum melding into a refreshingly icy sweetness. The finish is crisp and bright, with a smooth slushy texture that coats the palate like a tropical snow cone.

A delicate yet spirited marriage of floral chamomile and bright citrus that softens grappa's characteristic heat, with honey lending a silky, sweet roundness.
