A smash is a muddled cocktail — fruit, herbs, spirit, citrus. Our Sailors Rum - Wild Berry already carries ripe berry character, so this drink builds on what is already there rather than fighting against it.

How to Make It

  1. 1

    Muddle berries and mint with simple syrup in the bottom of a shaker.

  2. 2

    Add Sailors Rum - Wild Berry, lemon juice, and ice.

  3. 3

    Shake vigorously for 10 seconds.

  4. 4

    Double-strain over crushed ice in a rocks glass.

  5. 5

    Garnish with fresh berries and a mint sprig.

Bartender's Tip

Double-straining removes berry seeds and mint fragments — the drink looks and feels cleaner.
