Glass: Collins
Garnish: A straw
75mls Bacardi or dark rum if you prefer
30mls Fresh Lime Juice
30mls Lime cordial
60mls Soda Water
2 dashes of Angostura bitters
Combine the rum, juice and cordial with plenty of ice and shake vigorously. Dump the ingredients, ice and all, into the collins glass, top with soda and bitters and stir it with a straw.
There are plenty of recipes around for this old drink. This is my favourite because it is quick and easy, unpretentious, and it fits perfectly into a 14 oz (414mls) or 16 oz (473mls) collins glass.
