Hotel Nacional

Description

White rum gives the Hotel Nacional a clean cane base, with pineapple lending body and apricot liqueur a round stone-fruit note. Lime cuts through the fruit and keeps the finish defined. It’s a good next move from a Daiquiri if you want more texture and two distinct layers of fruit.

Ingredients

45 ml White rum
30 ml Pineapple juice
15 ml Apricot liqueur
15 ml lime juice
10 ml Sugar syrup
Ice
lime

Equipment needed

Cocktail Shaker – Used to chill, dilute and integrate the cocktail before serving. Muddler – Useful for gently pressing herbs, fruit or sugar when building the drink. Fine Mesh Strainer – Use for a polished double-strain when citrus, fruit or herbs are shaken.

Instructions

Add the white rum, pineapple juice, apricot liqueur, fresh lime juice and sugar syrup to a shaker with ice.
Shake hard until thoroughly chilled.
Fine strain into a chilled coupe.
Garnish with lime and serve immediately.
