ABOUT
This rum old fashioned is something I came up with for a friend’s party that I will be bartending next weekend. It’s a simple rum old fashioned that I wanted to introduce some tropical vibes too. The sweetener is passionfruit and to create a smooth mouthfeel I washed the age rum with some coconut oil. Add any combo of citrus oil! Cheers y’all!
