Light and Dark Instructions

Light and Dark is a delicious and refreshing cocktail that combines the flavors of light and dark liquors. This cocktail is the perfect choice for those who enjoy a balance of sweet and strong flavors in their drinks.

To make a Light and Dark cocktail, begin by filling a cocktail shaker with ice. Next, add equal parts of light rum and dark rum to the shaker. The light rum adds a smooth and subtle flavor, while the dark rum brings depth and richness to the drink.

Once the rums are in the shaker, add a splash of grenadine syrup. The grenadine adds a touch of sweetness and gives the cocktail its distinct red color. To balance out the sweetness, squeeze in the juice of half a lime. The lime juice adds a tart and tangy element to the drink, which helps to round out the flavors.

Now, it's time to shake! Secure the lid of the cocktail shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds. This will chill the drink and blend all the flavors together.

Finally, strain the cocktail into a glass filled with ice. You can garnish your Light and Dark cocktail with a slice of lime or a cherry for an extra touch of visual appeal. Then, sit back, relax, and enjoy the refreshing flavors of this delightful cocktail.

Whether you're sipping it by the pool on a hot summer day or enjoying it at a cozy bar with friends, the Light and Dark cocktail is sure to impress. Its balanced flavors and vibrant colors make it a standout choice for any occasion. Give this cocktail a try and elevate your drinking experience to new heights!
