Overproof rum gets cut here with water, lime juice, sugar syrup, and a dash of Angostura bitters -- a naval classic dating to 18th-century British sailing ships, when watered-down rum rations were issued to sailors to curb drunkenness while still providing their daily allowance. Historically significant as one of the earliest documented rum-and-citrus combinations, it's a direct ancestor of drinks like the Daiquiri. Served over ice, simple and warming.
Shake all ingredients with ice, then strain into an ice-filled glass. Garnish with a lime wedge.
