July’s is here with a bang. Two fantastic rums with exceptional flavour profiles, interview with Talula White of Sekforde Tailored Mixers, unique cocktails to try celebrating national daiquiri day, competitions and much much more crammed into the latest edition.

Our rum of the month features the latest expression from the Equiano Rum Co. bringing an exceptional blend of fresh sugar cane juice rum from the Grays Distillery in Mauritius and barrel aged rum from the Foursquare Distillery in Barbados. In Rumspiration you can read all about Olaudah Equiano, the 18th Century writer, entrepreneur, abolitionist and freedom fighter with tasting notes and cocktail recipes courtesy of Ian Burrell, the global rum ambassador (ingredients in the box).

For our spiced & flavoured rum of the month we launched Belgrove’s newest creation with fig and blackberry infused into single origin rum from Demerara with a great write up and further cocktails to try.

Along with the in-depth features on our rums in this month box we are celebrating the history of the sound system and influence it has had on British culture. This is an electrifying and exciting journey which will be run over the next three months with Zoe Baxter aka ‘Lucy Cat’ kicking us off with the origins of this cultural phenomena.

Enjoy

It’s National Daiquiri Day 🍹🍹 Making Ru

It’s National Daiquiri Day 🍹🍹

Making Rum Shine

If there is one cocktail that most bartenders acknowledge as the king of rum cocktails, it is the Daiquiri. The simple mix of rum, lime, and sugar is the trinity of ingredients that make up the backbone for many exotic drinks such as the Planters Punch, The Mai Tai and even the Mojito.

The drink was supposedly invented by an American mining engineer named Jennings Cox, who worked in a village called Daiquiri in Cuba at the time of the Spanish–American War during the late 1890’s. Originally the drink was served in a tall glass packed with cracked ice. A teaspoon of sugar was poured over the ice and the juice of one or two limes was squeezed over the sugar. Two or three ounces of white rum completed the mixture. The glass was then frosted by stirring with a long-handled spoon. Later the Daiquiri evolved to be mixed in a shaker with the same ingredients but with shaved ice. After a thorough shaking, it was poured into a chilled coupe glass.

Consumption of the drink remained localised until 1909, when a Lucius W. Johnson, a U.S. Navy medical officer, tried Cox's drink. Johnson subsequently introduced it to the Army and Navy Club in Washington, D.C., and drinkers of the Daiquiri increased over the space of a few decades. During the US prohibition, Americans flocked to Cuba to drink, and the Daiquiri became even more famous. It was one of the favourite drinks of writer Ernest Hemingway and U.S. President John F. Kennedy.

Today the Daiquiri comes in all shapes and sizes, from flavoured to frozen. From straight up, to on the rocks. And whichever way you choose, it should be cold, refreshing, light and easy to drink with a balance of sweet and sour.

Cheers

Ingredients
50ml Equiano Light
25ml Fresh Lime Juice
15ml Agave nectar/syrup
3 dashes of @angosturauk orange bitters

Method
Shake all of the ingredients with plenty of ice. Strain into a martini glass or champagne coupe. Garnish with the oils & twist of an orange peel.

July’s Cocktail of the Month

Legend has it that Captain Philip Shaddock, from the East India Company, introduced the pomelo fruit to the Caribbean in the 17th century, also known as a shaddock. The grapefruit is a hybrid fruit, a cross between the pomelo & sweet orange. July’s cocktail of the month is a delicious grapefruit based variation of a classic Daiquiri, designed by @therumambassador Ian Burrell, co-founder of Equiano rum.

The Captain Shaddock

Ingredients
50ml Equiano Light or Belgrove Spiced Fig and Blackberry Spiced Rum
25ml Fresh Lime Juice
25ml Frobisher’s Grapefruit Juice
15ml Blossom’s Grenadine Syrup

Method
Shake all the ingredients with ice cubes. Strain into a martini glass. Garnish with a slice of fresh pink grapefruit.
