Cocktail
Prepare the glass
Fill a highball glass (or Collins glass) with ice cubes until nearly full. Using clear, fresh ice keeps the drink colder longer and dilutes more slowly.
Add lime
Squeeze about 0.5 oz (half an ounce) of fresh lime juice over the ice, taking care to remove any seeds. Optionally drop the spent lime half into the glass for extra aroma.
Add ginger beer
Pour 4 oz of chilled Gosling's Ginger Beer into the glass over the ice and lime juice. Pour gently to preserve carbonation.
Float the rum
Slowly pour 2 oz of Gosling's Black Seal Rum over the back of a bar spoon (or pour very gently down the side of the glass) so the dark rum floats on top of the ginger beer, creating the signature layered look.
Garnish and serve
Garnish with a lime wedge on the rim. Serve with a long straw or stirrer so the drink can be gently mixed at the table if desired. Recommend stirring once before drinking to combine flavors.
