Chicago-based cocktail consultant Jennifer Contraveos puts Cruzan Rum to good use with this recipe.
5 raspberries
¼ oz. demerara syrup
1 lime, freshly juiced
½ oz. fresh lemon sour
1 oz. St-Germain Elderflower Liqueur
¾ oz. Cruzan Single Barrel Rum
Madagascar Infused Vanilla Sugar
Lime wheel for garnish
Muddle raspberries and demerara syrup in a pint glass. Squeeze lime, add lemon sour, St-Germain and rum. Set mixture aside. Frost rim of a rocks glass with vanilla sugar, then add ice. Return to mixture and shake vigorously in an ice-filled Boston shaker. Strain into sugar-frosted rocks glass and garnish with a lime wheel.
