This past weekend, we participated in a very fun event for the first time ever – the Chicago Rum Fest. We joined about 40 other distilleries and brands for a day-long celebration of rum – samples, seminars, cocktails and more. If you’re a rum lover in our area, you should try to attend next year!
Here’s one of the rum cocktails on our current menu, a simple yet delicious one:
Grapefruit Daiquiri
2 oz Bourbon Cask Rum
1 oz Fresh Grapefruit Juice (we like white grapefruit best here, but pink grapefruit works too)
½ oz Fresh Lime Juice
¾ oz Demerara Simple
Shake ingredients with ice; strain into chilled coupe glass. Garnish with wedge or wheel of lime. Enjoy!
