Description

Directions

• Combine the sugar, orange juice, and turmeric root in a saucepan over medium heat and cook until sugar has dissolved. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes. Strain out the turmeric and then add a 1/2 cup of orange and pomelo (or grapefruit) sections.
• Separate the syrup into two equal portions. With one, mix in 1 cup water (or equal part water) and then spoon it into ice cube trays and freeze overnight. Put the other half in the refrigerator and let it sit overnight.
• In a shaker lightly muddle the mint so that it is bruised and has released its flavor.
• Add the Orange and Pomelo Simple Syrup, lime juice, rum, and fill the rest of the shaker with ice.
• Shake well and pour into a glass. Top with the club soda and 1 or 2 (depending on how sweet you want your drink), of the frozen Orange and Pomelo Simple Syrup ice cubes.
