Ingredients

- Add all ingredients to cocktail shaker with ice. Shake well. Double strain into chilled coupe. Garnish with lime wheel.
Pro Tips
- Use fresh citrus juice - bottled juice lacks the bright acidity and aromatic oils
- Shake vigorously for 12-15 seconds until the shaker is frosted and very cold
- Chill your coupe glass in the freezer for at least 15 minutes before serving
- Part of the Tiki cocktail tradition - balance of rum, citrus, and exotic flavors is key
