Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Place 1 medium peeled and sliced mango on the pan and char for 2-3 minutes per side until grill marks form and the mango softens.
  2. Step 2: Transfer the charred mango to a blender and add 2 oz dark rum, 1 oz fresh lime juice, 1 oz simple syrup, and 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon. Blend until smooth.
  3. Step 3: Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with 1 cup ice cubes. Pour the mango rum mixture over the ice and shake vigorously for 15 seconds until chilled.
  4. Step 4: Strain the cocktail into a tall glass filled with fresh ice. Top with 2 oz club soda and stir gently.
  5. Step 5: Garnish with 6 fresh mint leaves and serve immediately with a straw.
