The flavour of fresh sugar cane and the depth of molasses pair up to make rum cocktails deliciously sweet, light and refreshing. Starting 15 May, The Mix offers 15 unique and luscious rum based cocktails for 15 nights.

The 15 includes many all time favourites and few signature blends such as, the Beachcomber – a perfect summer evening cocktail with an interesting mix of flavours, which is best described as a maraschino-flavoured Daiquiri because the maraschino liqueur almost dominates the palate, even though only a dash is added; the Zombie – this cocktail has the potential to turn you into a zombie – just as the name implies and many Zombie drinkers can attest to. The 1939 World’s Fair was its debut and it is still perfect to enjoy for a relaxing happy hour. Then there’s the Piña Colada – one of the most popular tropical cocktails and it is definitely one of the creamiest.

“Of all the liquors, rum is arguably the most cocktail-friendly,” explains Krishantha Dharmasena, Manager at The Mix Bar.

Rum is such a versatile product; it is constantly experimented the world over with different products and ages to create the best flavours. Rum has more notes and qualities than vodka for example, and hence can compliment many ingredients and make interesting cocktails.
