Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 Tbsp coarse sugar
  • 1 tangerine or clementine
  • 3 sprigs rosemary
  • 2 oz. rum
  • Crushed ice

Instructions

  1. Place 1 1/2 Tbsp coarse sugar in a small bowl.
  2. Slice the tangerine or clementine in half and dip the cut side into the sugar.
  3. Place the tangerine cut-side down in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and add about 3 sprigs of rosemary in the pan. Let it cook for about 2 minutes until the sugar caramelizes on the tangerine. Remove from heat.
  4. Discard the rosemary. Let the tangerine cool a bit and then cut each half into quarters.
  5. Put the tangerine quarters and 1/2 tsp remaining sugar in a cocktail shaker. Muddle to release as much juice as possible from the tangerines.
  6. Add 2 oz. rum and crushed ice to the shaker.
  7. Shake well and pour into an ice-filled glass.
