The Queen’s Park Swizzle has been made a thousand different ways over the years, different rums, different builds, Angostura floated or mixed in… and honestly, even after going down the Queen’s Park rabbit hole, I’m not convinced there’s only one true “classic” way to make it. Which I love, it means you get to play around and still call it a Queen’s Park Swizzle.

Here’s how I felt like making mine today:
• 1 oz Havana Club 7
• 1 oz Appleton 8
• 1 oz fresh lime juice (save those husks!)
• 0.75 oz Demerara syrup
• A generous handful of mint
• About 6 dashes of Angostura bitters for the float
In a large highball, add the lime juice and mint. Slice the spent lime husks into a few pieces and place them over the mint. Add the rums and syrup, then fill with crushed ice and swizzle until frosty. Top with more crushed ice, float the Angostura, garnish with a mint bouquet and a straw.
Cheers!
