Ingredients

  • 1/8 cup fresh raspberries
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 3/4 cup brewed black iced tea, cooled
  • 2 tablespoons raspberry syrup
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 ounce dark rum
  • 1/2 ounce light rum
  • Mint leaves for garnish
  • Ice

Instructions

  1. Combine raspberries, water, and sugar in a small saucepan. Heat over high heat until boiling, stirring to dissolve sugar.
  2. Reduce to a simmer and continue to cook until the syrup turns deep red and the berries are soft, about 10 minutes.
  3. Remove from heat and let cool. Strain through a fine-mesh strainer, pressing to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the raspberries.
  4. In a mixing glass, combine the brewed tea, raspberry syrup, lemon juice, both rums, and ice. Stir for about 30 seconds, ensuring all ingredients are well incorporated and the ice begins to melt.
  5. Pour the cocktail into a glass filled with ice and garnish with mint leaves.
