Today is National Rum Day!! A day where we sit back, relax and pay homage to the noble spirit. Wherever you are, be sure to set aside some time for a stiff rum drink with good friends.
To help you celebrate we recommend this simple Old Fashioned recipe with a twist. Enjoy.
CRUZAN COCONUT OLD FASHIONED
Ingredients:
2 parts Cruzan Single Barrel Rum
1/2 part Rich Simple Syrup
3 dashes of Bitters
Coconut Water Ice Cubes (see additional recipe below)
Method: Cut a wide swath of orange peel and lightly press it in the bottom of a rocks glass. Add rum, syrup and bitters. Now drop in a few Coconut Water Ice Cubes and stir gently. Serve and enjoy.
Coconut Water Ice Cubes Recipe: Pour a can of Coconut Water (strain the pulp out first, if needed) in an ice cube tray – the bigger the cube tray the better – and freeze for several hours.
