We're not saying that we're completely over gin (as if we would, there must be some we haven't tried yet), but we are in the mood to mix things up a bit. Perhaps it's the heatwave, or the trend for all things tropical, but rum is definitely having its moment in the sun. Whether you like it light or dark, it's definitely the drink to try this Summer. It's not just for mojitos — although we do love them — and some of the rums are delicious enough to drink straight up or over ice. Plus, the dark and spicy spirits taste delicious poured over vanilla ice cream. Take a look through our collection of delicious rums to try this Summer, and you'll be doing your very best pirate impression before you've even finished your first cocktail. Oh, and if you're not drinking, don't worry, we've got your back, too.
