Rum Dawa Cocktail
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon of raw sugar
- 4 cl Ginger and Lemongrass infused rum
- 2 cl Aloe Vera Juice
- Ice cubes
Infusion Method:
To infuse the rum start with a clean, air-tight jar.
Place a few shavings of raw ginger and a small branch of lemongrass inside the jar. Fill the jar with rum and cover tightly with lid. Store the jar in a dark place and shake 3-5 times a day.
Infuse for one week before tasting. If the flavor is too weak, continue to infuse.
Once your infusion is complete, strain the rum into a clean jar.
Cocktail:
Muddle the lime and raw sugar in a glass and fill with ice.
Add the rum and juice and stir well.
Serve in a Mason jar and garnish with a wooden stirrer coated with honey.
