Trader Vic tweaked this one a lot as did Don The Beachcomber. Neither of
them originated the drink, but they took a lot of time perfecting it. The
version presented here is based on a recipe by Beachbum Berry. This is the
single serving version of the popular communal, bowl cocktail.
2 oz light rum
1/2 oz. brandy or cognac
2 oz. fresh orange juice
1 oz. fresh lemon juice
1/2 oz. orgeat syrup
1/2 oz. dark rum as a float
Combine all the components except the dark rum in a shaker. Add ice and
shake vigorously. Pour over ice into a collins glass or tiki mug. Carefully
pour the dark rum into the glass -- it should float to the top. Garnish
with an orange wedge and a single straw.
