Rum: Shake, Muddle, Stir

In Rum: Shake Muddle Stir, Dan Jones introduces readers to the best rum-makers on the planet, as well as some of the most exciting mixes that can be made from the spirit. If you’re a fan of a classic Cuba Libre and want to take things to unchartered territories, look no further.

Oozing style and flavour, these rum-based cocktails have it all: start with a refreshingly fruity Piña Colada and transport yourself to the laid-back beaches of Hawaii or bring out your naughty side with the dark, stormy flavours of the Dirty Little Ruby – perfect levels of sweet and sour. Featuring all the staple favourites like the Mai Tai, Negroni and a delicious Hot Rum Toddy, Dan will have you stirring up more adventurous mixes like the boozy Yuzu Ginger Daiquiri in no time.

With over 40 tantalising cocktails as well as recipes for DIY syrups, sours, infusions and more, Rum: Shake Muddle Stir will show you just how versatile this golden liquor is, and proves there is a rum-based tipple out there for everyone, just waiting to be discovered.
