About the Bacardi Cocktail

A 1936 court ruling declared it must be made with Bacardi rum to bear this name.

  • No White Rum? Use Gold Rum (A little richer)
  • No White Rum? Use Cachaça (Grassier and funkier)
  • No Lime Juice? Use Lime (Squeeze fresh: 1 lime gives about 25 ml)
  • No Lime Juice? Use Lemon Juice (Softer, different aroma)
  • No Grenadine? Use Raspberry Syrup (Berry instead of pomegranate)
