Notes
- Ice - You will want to shake the ingredients WITH ice as well as pour over ice. The reason is that this cocktail has a lot of room temperature ingredients and shaking it with ice will help to cool the liquid down and prevent it from melting the ice in the glass really fast. No one likes a watered down drink!
- Rum - The foundation of this cocktail is rum, but you can make it your own by choosing different kinds of rum. Dark Rum is the classic spirit for this recipe, but if you'd rather do a spiced or white rum, that's fine too. A popular twist on this cocktail actually adds 1 ounce of each dark, spiced, and white to the drink for an extra strong cocktail. If you prefer coconut rum, I would actually recommend my Mai Tai cocktail instead!
- Make Ahead - If you do decide to make this as a punch for a large gathering, you can definitely make it ahead, just don't add the ice or club soda until just before serving!
