Method

How to make Mariposa

Follow the 6 reviewed catalog steps in order.

  1. 01

    Chill the coupe thoroughly, confirm that no garnish is required, and ready the shaker.

  2. 02

    Measure white rum, brandy, lemon juice, orange juice, grenadine accurately and add them to a clean cocktail shaker.

  3. 03

    Fill the shaker about three-quarters full with solid ice cubes and seal it firmly.

  4. 04

    Pre-chill a coupe. Add the white rum, brandy, fresh lemon juice, fresh orange juice, and one restrained dash of grenadine to a shaker with solid ice. Shake firmly for 10–15 seconds, fine-strain into the chilled coupe, allow coarse bubbles to settle, and serve without garnish.

  5. 05

    Fine-strain into the chilled coupe so no small ice fragments reach the drink.

  6. 06

    Serve immediately without a garnish while the drink is at its best.
