The Bronx Bomber mocktail — dark cherry-cola drink with black sugar rim and maraschino cherry garnish

Ingredients

3 oz tart cherry juice (or 1 oz tart cherry concentrate + 2 oz water)
2 oz cola (non-alcoholic)
0.5 oz fresh lime juice
0.5 oz simple syrup
Black sugar, for rim
Ice

Instructions

Prepare the black sugar rim: wet the rim of a tall Collins glass with a lime wedge, then dip into black sugar.
Fill the glass with ice.
In a shaker, combine tart cherry juice, lime juice, and simple syrup with ice. Shake for 10 seconds.
Strain into the prepared glass over ice.
Top with cola, pouring slowly down the side of the glass to preserve the carbonation.
