- 1
Fill the shaker
Fill a cocktail shaker three-fourths full with ice, then add the white rum, freshly squeezed lime juice, and simple syrup. Fresh lime is non-negotiable here — bottled juice is usually sweetened and throws the whole balance off.
- 2
Shake it up
Cover and shake hard for 10 to 15 seconds, until the outside of the shaker frosts over with condensation. That shake chills and dilutes the drink to exactly where you want it.
- 3
Strain and serve
Double-strain into a chilled coupe glass — a Hawthorne strainer plus a fine mesh strainer catches any ice chips so you get that clean, silky texture with a little foam cap on top. Serve right away.
