Here’s my take on the House of Angostura cocktail.

3-4 fresh mint leaves

2 oz white rum

3 oz portugal, tangerine, or mandarin orange juice

1/2 oz lime juice

club soda (soda water)

dash Angostura bitters

1. Crush the mint leaves in a tall glass. Fill glass with ice.

2. Stir in the citrus juices, then add a splash of club soda on top. Finish with a dash of bitters.

3. Garnish with a segment of portugal or tangerine and a sprig of mint.

Makes 1 drink.

Tip: Depending on the sweetness of your juice, you may need to add a hit of sugar syrup.
