Glass Guide- Cocktail Glass

The Nevada Cocktail is short, neat and is a nice "rum martini." This is also a great cocktail to show off your favorite rums, paired with fresh squeezed grapefruit and lime juices. I like to use demerara simple syrup because it adds a nice richness that balances out the citrus.

Ingredients:

  • 2 oz light rum
  • 2 oz grapefruit juice
  • 1 oz lime juice
  • 2 tsp superfine sugar
  • dash of bitters

Preparation:

  1. Pour the ingredients into a cocktail shaker with ice cubes.
  2. Shake well.
  3. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass.
