Explore what rum can do

Rum cocktails range from a crisp three-ingredient Daiquiri to a fruit-filled Hurricane. This collection includes white rum, dark rum, gold rum, and coconut rum, sometimes combined in one drink. Check the recipe before shopping: each style contributes a different flavor.

Start with citrus or go tropical

Daiquiri balances white rum, lime, and simple syrup. Mojito adds mint and soda; Cuba Libre brings lime to rum and cola. Mai Tai layers white and dark rum with lime, orange liqueur, and orgeat. Piña Colada, Blue Hawaiian, and Painkiller use coconut milk with pineapple, while Hurricane and Bahama Mama bring several fruit flavors together.

Try a sparkling finish

Old Cuban combines gold rum, lime, mint, bitters, and sparkling wine. Add the bubbles after shaking the other ingredients. If you are starting with one bottle, compare the ingredient lists first: a Daiquiri or Cuba Libre needs fewer extras than the tropical punches.
