What is a rum-based cocktail that's not too sweet?
Cocktail Colin says:
When seeking a rum-based cocktail that's not overly sweet, the Mojito might strike you as an interesting option due to its fresh and invigorating blend. Rated at an impressive 4.93/5, the Mojito is a classic Cuban cocktail known for its crisp and clean flavors that aren't overpoweringly sweet. The lime juice provides a tart contrast to the gentle sweetness from sugar, while mint adds an aromatic lift, and soda water rounds it off with a refreshing effervescence. This makes it a perfect choice if you're after something light and citrusy with a minty touch that keeps the sweetness in check.
If you are looking for something with a bit more complexity, consider the Rum Swizzle. With a score of 4.9/5, this cocktail elegantly combines Jamaican rum's robust flavors with the slight citrus tang of lime and lemon juices. The addition of falernum and a dash of Angostura Bitters introduces a layer of spice and aromatic depth while keeping sweetness subdued. It's a drink that excites the senses with its vibrant tastes without overwhelming them with sweetness, making it a fantastic choice for those who appreciate a more nuanced rum cocktail.
