It’s Cocktail Time! The best time.

This is one of my favourite cocktails and the special ingredient is Bacardi ‘Carta Negra’. It is a dark rum which is blended and matured in heavily charred oak barrels which gives a rich, complex flavour. Mix it with sparkling ginger beer and zesty lime juice and it is ‘very’ easy to drink. Enjoy with lots of ice and mint to garnish.

For 1 cocktail
50ml Bacardi Carta Negra Rum
1 Lime, halved and juiced
100ml Jamaican Ginger Beer
Mint, to garnish

Fill the glass with ice, squeeze over the lime halves and leave them in the glass. Pour over the rum and mix and then top up with ginger beer. Top with mint and serve!
