Shanghai Cocktail

Bright and slightly sweet with a clear aniseed aroma from the anisette, balanced by fresh lemon and a hint of grenadine color and sweetness. The Jamaican rum gives a light tropical backbone, making it an easy-drinking, refreshing sipper worth trying when you want a short, citrus-forward cocktail with a licorice twist.

Ingredients

  • 1 oz Jamaican Light Rum
  • 1 tsp Anisette Liqueur
  • 0.5 tsp Grenadine
  • 0.25 lemon Lemon Juice

Instructions

  1. Fill a shaker with ice to ensure proper chilling.
  2. Pour 1 oz of Jamaican Light Rum into the shaker.
  3. Add 1 teaspoon of Anisette to the mix for a sweet, aromatic flavor.
  4. Include 1/2 teaspoon of Grenadine for a touch of sweetness and color.
  5. Juice 1/4 of a lemon into the shaker to provide fresh citrus notes.
  6. Secure the shaker lid and shake vigorously to blend the flavors and chill the cocktail.
  7. Strain the mixture carefully into a chilled cocktail glass to remove ice and any pulp or seeds.
  8. Serve immediately to ensure freshness.
