Dark Matter Mule

AI-generatedEasyHighball

A brooding, spiced island escapade that hits with dark molasses depth and a crackling ginger finish.


Ingredients

  • 2 oz dark rum
  • 3/4 oz lime juice
  • 1/2 oz maple syrup
  • 2 dashes angostura bitters
  • 4 oz ginger beer
  • 6 leaves mint

Method

  1. 11. Gently slap mint leaves between your palms to release their oils, then drop them into a highball glass.
  2. 22. Add dark rum, lime juice, maple syrup, and angostura bitters directly to the glass.
  3. 33. Fill the glass three-quarters full with ice cubes.
  4. 44. Pour ginger beer slowly over the ice to preserve effervescence.
  5. 55. Stir once from the bottom upward with a bar spoon to integrate without losing carbonation.

PRO TIP

Use a spicy craft ginger beer rather than a mild one — the heat contrast with the sweet maple syrup is what makes this drink sing.

Garnish — lime wedge and mint sprig
