Benjamin Jones of Clément rum distillery in Martinique shared his recipe for this cool, bracing cocktail, his country's national drink.

2 lime wedges
2 oz Martinique rhum agricole vieux, such as Clément V.S.O.P. or La Favourite
½ oz cane syrup, such as Petite Canne

Squeeze juice from wedges into an old-fashioned glass and add one spent wedge to glass; rub rim of glass with second spent wedge and then discard. Add rum, syrup, and ice to fill; stir until chilled.
