Ingredients
(serves 1)
1 Kaffir lime leaf
2 wedges ripe tomato or 2 plum or pear tomatoes
¾ ounce simple syrup*
¾ ounce freshly squeezed lime juice
1½ ounces local vodka
½ ounce Treaty Oak Platinum Rum
Instructions
Muddle the Kaffir lime leaf in the mixing tin; the leaf is tough so it’s OK to be aggressive. You should smell the aroma of the leaf. In the mixing glass, muddle the tomato in the simple syrup. Add the lime juice, vodka, and rum. Shake with ice and double strain into a cocktail glass. Garnish with a Kaffir lime leaf and/or a pear tomato.
* Make your own simple syrup by simmering equal parts sugar and water until sugar dissolves.
