Begin by preparing the glass: on a small plate, mix together granulated sugar and a pinch of cayenne pepper. Wet the rim of your glass with a bit of water or citrus, then dip the rim into the sugar and cayenne pepper mixture to coat it evenly.
Fill a cocktail shaker with ice and add the dark rum, Kahlua, and two dashes of Grand Marnier.
Shake the mixture well until the ingredients are fully combined and chilled.
Strain the cocktail into the prepared glass, being careful not to disturb the sugared rim.
Serve immediately and enjoy the sweet heat of this devilishly delicious cocktail.
Notes
Pro Tips
