Bright, tart, and bracingly refreshing, this is the kind of cocktail that reminds you why the classics became classics in the first place. White rum, fresh lime juice, and simple syrup are all you need β three ingredients that come together in a shaker to produce something genuinely greater than the sum of their parts. For anyone navigating spice sensitivities, cocktails can actually be a sneaky source of concern, since some flavored spirits and pre-made mixes sneak in unexpected botanicals or colorings. Here, every ingredient is clean and straightforward, so there's nothing hidden to worry about. The double-straining step is worth the extra effort β it gives the finished drink that silky, chip-free texture you'd expect from a well-made bar pour. Serve it ice-cold in a properly chilled coupe and it looks as good as it tastes.
