Deep-Sea Diver

• 1 lime, cut into 1/4-in.-thick wheels
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup water
• 1/4 cup (2 oz.) dark rum
• 1/4 cup (2 oz.) overproof light rum
• 2 tablespoon fresh lime juice (from 1 lime)
• 1 1/2 tablespoons (3/4 oz.) light rum
• 1 1/2 tablespoons (3/4 oz.) Cointreau or other orange-flavored liqueur
• 1 1/2 teaspoons Lime Syrup
• 1/2 teaspoon powdered sugar
• Fresh cracked ice
• Lime wheel

1. Prepare the Lime Syrup: Combine lime wheels, sugar, and water in a small saucepan over medium-high. Bring to a simmer, stirring often until sugar dissolves, about 1 minute. Remove from heat, and let cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Remove and discard lime wheels, reserving syrup. Refrigerate syrup in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
2. Prepare the Cocktail: Fill a cocktail shaker with ice; add dark rum, overproof rum, lime juice, light rum, Cointreau, Lime Syrup, and powdered sugar. Cover with lid, and shake vigorously until thoroughly chilled, about 15 seconds. Strain into a large highball glass filled with fresh cracked ice. Add more Lime Syrup, if desired. Garnish with a lime wheel. Serve immediately.
