Kew Garden
The KEW GARDEN is a garden-fresh fizzy cocktail mixing the flavors of cucumber, mint, elderflower and lime with blended white rum. The result is a deliciously light thirst-quencher perfect for warm summer days. Though it doesn’t include quite the botanical...

The CARROT DAIQUIRI mixes delicious carrot juice and white rum. But it also has a few things in the mix that might need purchased in advance such as falernum liqueur, mint sprigs and turmeric. Here’s a daiquiri that has the...

Planter’s Punch
The PLANTER’S PUNCH is the purest and simplest of the rum punches. It’s also likely the strongest, with 3 oz. of dark rum in each serving. Though it doesn’t use pineapple or orange juice in the mix as in the...
Casablanca
The CASABLANCA is not a gin drink, as might be expected if referring to Rick’s gin joint in Casablanca. It’s a sweet & sour light rum cocktail with a crisp flavor and icy-white appearance. Its fresh balance is inviting for...
