Notes
I came up with this cocktail because I really like Rhum Clement's lineup and I also like their company. I was having trouble coming up with a good match for our ginger beer until this cocktail. The Rhum Agricole stands out beautifully, but mixes well with strong-tasting flavors like strawberry and ginger beer.
History
Originally, I used Stirrings' Key Lime syrup in this and still prefer it over simple syrup. However, key lime syrup is hard to find, so simple syrup is an acceptable substitute.
