How to make it
Step 1: Chill the glass
Fill a highball glass to the brim with fresh cubed ice.
Step 2: Add the base
Pour the fresh lime juice and gold rum directly over the ice.
Step 3: Top up and stir
Slowly pour in the cold cola, then give it a single, gentle stir from the bottom up to mix without releasing too much carbonation.
Garnish
A fresh lime wedge slotted onto the rim or dropped straight into the glass.
Make it alcohol-free
Swap the rum for 50ml of a premium non-alcoholic spiced or dark rum alternative, such as Lyre's Dark Cane Spirit or Fluère Spiced Cane.
