Serve in a Tiki mug or collins
1 1⁄3 oz | Light gold rum (1-3 year old molasses column) |

Subtle clove spice and lime juice sits harmoniously with a duo of rums. A much used flavour combo but still a great cocktail worthy of a fresh outing.
A famous Tiki cocktail created circa 1963 by Tony Ramos at China Trader restaurant in Toluca Lake, California, USA, for the cast of the TV series of the same name who were filming at the nearby Warner Brothers Studios. Originally served in an iconic and now very collectable Hawaiian Eye mug.
