Rum-based cocktails are easy to drink thanks to their fruity flavors and sweetness, but the actual alcohol content can be higher than expected. Instead of rushing for sweetness, take your time to enjoy the gradual change in flavor as the ice melts. Each type of rum—light, dark, or spiced—can provide a completely different impression, so if you find a favorite, it’s worth comparing different rum types. When making cocktails at home, be sure to use fresh ingredients like lime and mint that can lose their aroma quickly. As sweeter recipes often involve fruit juices, balancing ice and acidity is important, so if it’s too sweet, try adding a little more lime to adjust.
