Rum Cocktails

We’re closing out the 9-Bottle Bar’s month-long look at rum with the recipe for a drink aptly named for the occasion. The alphabet-ending XYZ Cocktail appeared in the famous Savoy Cocktail Book, by bartender Harry Craddock, first published in 1930.

The Jungle Bird is a tropical rum cocktail featuring a bitter hint of Campari. It was created in the 1970s at the Kuala Lumpur Hilton.

If you gravitate toward stirred, spirit-focused drinks, you'll love this rum and Scotch cocktail.

The Jungle Bird Meets the Campari Sour in this delicious cocktail served at The Rum House in New York City.

The Holywater Cocktail: “The fire caramelizes the sugar, giving the drink depth and added richness,” says Lauren Schell of Seaworthy in New Orleans. “It’s a crucial element of balance, in addition to being eye-catching and purposefully interactive.” The Chartreuse-meets-sugar fire inside a hollowed-out lime might be simple to create but is a visual stunner while simultaneously helping to balance out the drink’s citrus notes.

Contrary to its name, this Pineapple Trainwreck cocktail is a perfectly balanced blend of sweetness, spice and acidity and it's utterly refreshing.

A touch of smoke brings depth to this bittersweet rum cocktail from bartender Sandy De Almeida’s home bar in Toronto, Canada.

In this rum cocktail from Death & Co.'s new outpost in Denver, three kinds of rum meet coffee and pineapple juice for the perfect bittersweet symphony of flavors.

This drink can be served hot or chilled. If serving hot, just combine all ingredients in a teacup and stir. If serving chilled, chill the tea after brewing and short shake all ingredients over ice and strain into a coupe glass.

Whether you serve this hot or cold, it's a delicately spiced drink to warm the cockles.
