Salford Rum has been carefully distilled and expertly spiced to create a smooth rum which can be enjoyed neat, with a mixer or as part of a cocktail. Below are a few of our favourite serving suggestions. We have tried to select ingredients that can be purchased at your local supermarket.

THE RUM & TONIC

We've been working hard behind the scenes with our expert mixologist on the perfect summer pairings for our golden spiced rum and to celebrate we're giving away a bottle of Double Dutch Cranberry & Ginger Tonic with all bottles purchased this summer. We chose Double Dutch Cranberry & Ginger Tonic as we found the ginger perfectly complemented our the spices in our rum, while the cranberry delivers the refreshing flavours you expect with a summer thirst quencher. 

Here's how to simply make the perfect Salford Rum x Double Double Dutch R&T:

Serve 50ml of Salford Rum over ice. Add 200ml Double Dutch Cranberry & Ginger Tonic. Garnish with fresh orange. 

 

The Perfect Serve

Our favourite way to enjoy Salford Rum is simply neat over ice. Add a couple of ice cubes to our Sipping Glass and free pour your ideal amount of Salford Rum. Add an optional squeeze of fresh lime. 

The Rum & Coke

Add 3 parts of your favourite cola with 1 part Salford Rum over ice. Add an optional squeeze of fresh lime.

The Rum & Ginger

Add 3 parts of your favourite Ginger Ale or Ginger Beer with 1 part Salford Rum over ice. Add an optional squeeze of fresh lime. 

We recommend Fentimans mixers.
