La Bomba

Credit: The Educated Barfly, citing Joaquín Simó

Ingredients

2 oz rum
3/4 oz lime juice
1/2 oz 2:1 clear syrup
5 raspberries
1 tsp pomegranate molasses
raspberry garnish


Directions

Pour ingredients into a cocktail shaker. Muddle the raspberries. Shake with ice and strain into a chilled coupe glass. Garnish with raspberries.


Notes

Ok, these are just dangerous. I struggle with daiquiris sometimes, and here the added pomegranate molasses and raspberries add just enough to bring this drink right to the sweet-tart line.
