Bermuda Triangle is a bright, easygoing rum-and-fruit highball-style drink that leans into tropical bar vibes more than deep cocktail lore. You won’t find a widely agreed origin story attached to it; instead, it fits the modern “built for sunshine” family of simple mixed drinks where a splash of rum and a sweet liqueur turn everyday juice into something party-ready.
On the palate, peach schnapps brings a soft, candied stone-fruit sweetness that immediately sets the tone. Spiced rum adds a warm, aromatic edge that keeps the drink from tasting one-note, giving the fruit a little extra depth. Orange juice does the heavy lifting with juicy citrus body, stretching the flavors into a long, refreshing sip where orange brightness and peach sweetness meet, with the rum’s spice lingering at the finish.
Serve it in a lowball over plenty of ice when you want something uncomplicated and crowd-pleasing. It suits brunches, poolside afternoons, and casual get-togethers, especially if you like sweeter, fruit-forward drinks that still have a hint of rum character underneath.

Cocktail Colin says:
Peach schnapps leads with candy-like stone fruit sweetness, spiced rum adds warm baking-spice depth, and orange juice brings bright citrus and a pulpy, breakfasty lift that keeps the sip juicy and straightforward. It works because the orange juice dilutes and freshens the schnapps while the rum’s spice gives the fruit a backbone; ideal for sweet-tooth drinkers and casual tropical-vibe sipping.
