Notes
- Mocktail: Just swap out the rum for an extra splash of club soda.
- This recipe can be increased to make a pitcher and can be made a few hours in advance for a fiesta.
- White rum can also be sold as "blanco" or "silver," so don't feel confused! Also, be sure you're reaching for regular white rum, not the coconut kind, or you'll risk your drink being far too sweet.
