Fresh lemon juice is essential for balance and flavor. Bottled lemon juice is an acceptable substitute but will lack brightness.
Light or white rum provides clean flavor without overpowering the whiskey and amaretto. Avoid dark or spiced rum.
The grenadine adds sweetness, so taste first and add a splash at a time. Adjust simple syrup down if the drink feels cloying.
Shake with ice and strain into a rocks glass over fresh ice for proper dilution and temperature.
An orange wheel is traditional and adds visual appeal. Express the citrus oils over the drink before garnishing.
