White rum

A light-colored sugarcane spirit. A lightly flavored style lets citrus and mint stay clear in a Daiquiri or Mojito.

What it tastes like

Light cane sweetness, citrus and gentle fruit.

Also known as: light rum, silver rum, white Cuban rum

These make a variation. They change the flavour, and sometimes the strength. Your bar still uses the exact recipe.

Dark rum
Start with the same amount. Adds richer flavor and color. Use the same volume as a starting point, then taste for balance.
