Ingredients

• 50 ml White rum
• 120 ml cola, well chilled
• 1 lime, cut into wedges (about 10 ml juice)
• Ice

Method

1. Squeeze two lime wedges into a highball glass and drop the squeezed shells in too; their oils add a lot of flavour.
2. Fill the glass to the top with ice and pour in the rum.
3. Top up with the cold cola, give one gentle stir and garnish with another lime wedge.

Tips

• Cola adds caffeine and sugar that can hide how much rum you are drinking; keep to a single 50 ml measure per glass.
• A golden or aged rum gives a rounder, more caramel drink than white rum.
