HBO's Succession is one of my favorite shows these days. If you've never seen the show, it's all about the Roy family. They're the ultra-rich and extremely dysfunctional family that owns a massive media and entertainment corporation. The show follows all the board drama and backstabbing as they fight for control of the family business.

Cousin Greg is a fan favorite character because of his bumbling attempts to climb the corporate ladder. Unfortunately his drink order could use some work, as evidenced by the scene I showed in this clip. Don't worry, Cousin Greg. I am here to help.

Cousin Greg's Upgraded Rum & Coke
2 oz dark rum
1/2 oz Liber & Co. Kola Syrup
2 dashes orange bitters

Stir over ice for approximately 60 seconds. Strain into a rocks glass with one large rock of ice. Garnish extravagantly with 3 Luxardo cherries. Cheers!
