Thursday Night Cocktail: Captain’s Lime Shandy


Very fitting for the last days of summer...

Recipe and Image from Katie at the Kitchen Door

Ingredients

2 shots (1 1/2 oz. each) Captain Morgan White Rum
1 shot ( 1 1/2 oz.) Clarified Key Lime Juice (available at Whole Foods)
4 dashes bitters
ice
1 bottle light bodied beer, chilled
sparkling lime soda, chilled
key lime slices, for garnish

Directions

Add the rum, key lime juice, bitters, and ice to a cocktail shaker. 

Shake vigorously for 30 seconds, then strain into two Old-Fashioned or juice glasses. 

Pour the beer over the liquor to fill the glasses almost to the top, then top each glass off with a splash of sparkling lime soda. 

Stir briefly to mix, serve immediately.


Cheers!
