Comments

Curated this: moved the ginger syrup instructions to the notes section - it breaks the line badly otherwise. As an aside, this seems like an unpalatable amount of lime here - even if you get an ounce of juice out of a lime, it's almost as much as the alcohol and sweetener combined.

You really do need two entire limes. It’s like a super-concentrated Dark and Stormy. Serve over ice - you do not want to finish this in a hurry.
