Equipment

  • Cocktail shaker
  • Jigger or measuring cup
  • Strainer
  • Bar spoon
  • Citrus juicer
  • Small plate or shallow dish
  • Rocks glass or coupe glass
  • Ice cubes

Ingredients

  • 1.5 oz white rum
  • 1 oz nigori sake
  • 1 oz mango liqueur
  • 1.5 oz mango juice ripe mango preferred
  • 0.5 oz simple syrup
  • 0.5 oz fresh lemon juice
  • 3-4 dashes Hawaiian chili water to taste
  • 1 dash tiki bitters
  • hibiscus chili seasoning for rim
  • ice for shaking and serving

Instructions

  • Rim the glass with hibiscus chili seasoning: moisten the rim with lemon juice, then dip into the seasoning.
  • Fill a shaker halfway with ice. Add white rum, nigori sake, mango liqueur, mango juice, simple syrup, lemon juice, Hawaiian chili water, and tiki bitters.
  • Shake hard for ~15 seconds until well chilled.
  • Strain into the rimmed glass. Add fresh ice if serving on the rocks and garnish as desired.

Notes

Adjust spice by changing the amount of chili water. Aged rum adds depth; fresh mango puree yields a thicker, fruitier texture. Don’t over‑shake to avoid excess dilution.
