Morro Instructions
The Morro cocktail is a refreshing and citrusy drink that is perfect for a hot summer day or any time you need a pick-me-up. Made with a combination of rum, lime juice, and simple syrup, it is a simple yet tasty cocktail that is sure to impress your guests.
To make a Morro cocktail, you will need a few key ingredients. First, you will need a good quality rum. The rum is the base of the cocktail and provides the main flavor. You can use either light or dark rum depending on your preference.
Next, you will need fresh lime juice. It is important to use fresh lime juice as it provides a bright and tangy flavor to the cocktail. You can squeeze the juice from the lime yourself or use store-bought lime juice if you prefer.
Finally, you will need simple syrup. Simple syrup is a mixture of equal parts sugar and water that has been heated until the sugar dissolves. It adds sweetness and balances out the acidity of the lime juice.
Now that you have all of your ingredients, it is time to make the Morro cocktail. Start by filling a cocktail shaker with ice. Add 2 ounces of rum, 1 ounce of lime juice, and 1/2 ounce of simple syrup to the shaker.
Shake the cocktail shaker vigorously for about 10 seconds to combine all of the ingredients and chill the drink. Then, strain the cocktail into a chilled glass filled with ice.
You can garnish the Morro cocktail with a lime wedge or a sprig of mint for added freshness. Serve the cocktail immediately and enjoy!
Best served in a Old-Fashioned Glass.
