Cocktails with White rum
White rum is a light sugarcane spirit, made from cane juice or molasses, often aged briefly and then filtered to stay clear. It tastes clean and gently sweet, with light grassy or vanilla notes, typically around 40% ABV. It is the classic base of the Daiquiri and the Mojito, and pairs well with citrus and mint. 6 cocktails on YouCocktail use White rum: classic recipes with exact quantities, method, strength and swaps.
