Celebrate National Rum Day!

Mount Gay Rum, the oldest rum distillery in the world at 300+ years old, is celebrating National Rum Day on August 16. Want to celebrate with them? The best way (in my opinion) is with a traditional Barbadian Rum punch!

With the popularity of rum on the rise, a refreshing cocktail, like the Barbadian Rum Punch detailed below, will really the spot and is a great way to celebrate on Tuesday! Having a client tasting? Need to just celebrate a great day on the job? 

Mount Gay Rum’s Barbadian Rum Punch

1 Part Sour (lime juice)
2 Parts Sweet (simple syrup)
3 Parts Strong (rum, preferably Mount Gay Black Barrel)
4 Parts Weak (water or unsweetened iced tea)
