Lt. Colonel Cocktail Drink Series #3- The Pepperita!

The Pepperita: Smooth, refreshing and just the right amount of kick.

1 part simple syrup

1 part lime juice

2 parts rum  (recommend Flor de Cana white rum)

Jalapeno slices

Shake with jalapenos and ice (do not muddle the jalapenos); pour over ice

Top with Topo or club soda and jalapenos slices.

This is my personal favorite Friday, end of the work week cocktail.  So simple to make and so very enjoyable to drink.  Give it a try and let us know your feedback.
