Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 oz white rum
  • 0.75 oz triple sec
  • 0.75 lime juice
  • 0.5 oz orgeat
  • 0.5 oz dark rum

Instructions
 

  • In a shaker combine white rum, triple sec, lime juice, orgeat, and ice. Shake very well.
  • Strain into ice-filled glass.
  • Pour the dark rum on top (float).

Notes

  • The original calls for orange curacao, which I did not have so I used triple sec instead.
  • Be sure to add the dark rum last, it's supposed to float on top of the drink.
