Rum Cocktails You Should Try At Least Once Have you had a rum cocktail lately? Have you enjoyed a tried and tested rum cocktail recipe all through the year? If not, it’s time you did! Rum is one of the most versatile drinks when it comes to creating a unique cocktail. So, whether it’s a Mojito or a Daiquiri, or any other rum cocktail, the latter can exploit rum’s full potential. In this article, we’ll talk about some rum cocktails you should try at least once…
Daiquiri: This is one rum cocktail everyone should not only drink but should learn how to make. A classic Daiquiri needs no fruit syrups and no blenders. All it needs to have are light rum, fresh lime juice, and sugar. Combine these three ingredients in a shaker and shake really well to dissolve the sugar. You can also use fruit syrup, which will bring out the taste of the rum. Once you learn how to make a basic Daiquiri, you can try making flavoured Daiquiris, such as Banana Daiquiri, Strawberry Daiquiri, and yes – believe it or not – Hemingway Daiquiri. Yes, the latter is named after the American writer of the 1920s and 1930s, Ernest Hemingway. Mojito: This is another simple rum cocktail, consisting of only a few ingredients, which are, rum, mint, lime, sugar, and soda. This is a refreshing cocktail, which is an epitome of freshness because of the mint. Again, you can try making a Pineapple Mojito, a Raspberry Mojito, and a Watermelon Mojito. Pina Colada: This is a coconut lover’s delight. You can enjoy this rum cocktail all through the year, but it is especially enjoyable during the summer. You can make a Pina Colada by either blending it or shaking it. This cocktail consists of light rum, pineapple juice, and coconut cream.
