How To Make Cable Car Cocktail Recipe

1. Firstly, fill your shaker with ice cubes. Ice cubes will keep the drink cold while shaking, making the cocktail more refreshing.
2. Then, pour in your spiced rum, orange liqueur and freshly squeezed lemon juice. These ingredients are what give the cocktail its unique flavor!
3. Next, we shake, shake, shake – hard enough to chill the drink but gentle enough to maintain the flavors.
4. Now, grab your swankiest cocktail glass, strain your mix into it and garnish with a slice of orange zest.

Tips For The Best Results

• Always use fresh lemon juice. It makes ALL the difference!
• Avoid cheap rum. Go for a quality spiced rum like Sailor Jerry or Captain Morgan.

Storage Tips

• Cocktails are best enjoyed fresh. However, you can store any leftover mix in the fridge for up to two days.
