White rum

[DC_FC]

Anyone got any ideas what drinks to make with some white rum

Boring- Coke

Exciting- crush a lime and a couple of sugar cubes in the bottom of a glass, fill with ice (crushed if possible) and then top with the rum. Stir well.

More exciting- Crush a lime, a sugar cube and a few mint leaves in the bottom of a glass, add a large rum and top with soda. Stir well.

Wow- In a blender add a banana, some orange juice and as much rum as you desire and blitz it up. Add sugar, mint, lime or anything else you fancy to taste.

A full bottle of white rum, a full bottle of rum, half a bag of sugar, a couple of cartons of fruit juice (I don't know if they still make it but 5 Alive and a carton of orange juice are brilliant) - rum punch!

i cant believe no one has told you to make the cuban favourite, a Mojtio!!! (pronounced mo-heeeto)

Here is the original authentic recipe from Havana Cuba

1 teaspoon powdered sugar
Juice from 1 lime (2 ounces)
4 mint leaves
1 sprig of mint
white Rum (preferably havana club)2 measures or ounces
2 ounces soda water or lemonade if you want it sweeter

There are countless recipes for the Mojito (prounced moh-HEE-toh), but this version is for the one Hemingway himself enjoyed at the Mojito's place of birth: La Bodeguita del Medio in Havana, Cuba. If you are throwing a Cuban theme party (Havana night themed party), plan on serving mojitos.


Place the mint leaves into a long mojito glass (often called a "collins" glass) and squeeze the juice from a cut lime over it. You'll want about two ounces of lime juice, so it may not require all of the juice from a single lime. Add the powdered sugar, then gently smash the mint into the lime juice and sugar with a muddler (a long wooden device pictured below, though you can also use the back of a fork or spoon if one isn't available). Add ice (preferably crushed) then add the rum and stir, and top off with the club soda. Garnish with a mint sprig.
