Rum Runner’s Paradise Cocktail


  • Author: Jessica
  • Total Time: 5 minutes

Ingredients

These ingredients come together to form a powerhouse of flavor:

  • 🥃 1 oz light rum

  • 🥃 1 oz dark rum

  • 🍌 ½ oz banana liqueur

  • 🍇 ½ oz blackberry brandy

  • 🍊 1 oz fresh orange juice

  • 🍋 1 oz fresh lime juice

  • 🍓 1 oz pineapple juice

  • 🍯 ½ oz grenadine syrup

  • 🧊 Crushed ice

  • 🍒 Maraschino cherry and orange slice, for garnish

  • 🌿 Fresh mint sprig, optional for garnish


Instructions

Step 1: Gather your ingredients and tools

Make sure you have a cocktail shaker, jigger or measuring tool, a strainer, and a tall glass ready.

Step 2: Combine the spirits and juices

In the cocktail shaker, pour the light rum, dark rum, banana liqueur, blackberry brandy, orange juice, lime juice, pineapple juice, and grenadine syrup.

Step 3: Add ice and shake

Fill the shaker with crushed ice. Secure the lid and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds until the mixture is well chilled and combined.

Step 4: Prepare your glass

Fill a tall glass with crushed ice to keep your drink refreshingly cold.

Step 5: Strain and garnish

Strain the cocktail into the prepared glass. Garnish with a maraschino cherry, an orange slice, and a sprig of fresh mint if desired.

Notes

  • 🧊 Use fresh juices for the best flavor—bottled juice tends to be too sweet or flat.

  • 🥄 Shake well to ensure all the flavors combine smoothly and the drink is perfectly chilled.

  • 🥃 Choose quality rums; their flavor will shine through in the final cocktail.
