I think that Spring has finally shown up here in Michigan.  Before we know it summer will be knocking on the door, and with that comes friends, fun, and BBQs.  And what BBQ is complete without some delicious adult beverages? My go to drinks are made with the world’s favorite, and most awarded rum, Bacardi Rum.
Msg 4 21+ Head to the blog to get a tasty chocolate rum float recipe! #BacardiAndCoke #CollectiveBias Share on XDid you know that rum cocktails are among the ten most popular drinks? Â And I can understand why. Bacardi Rum is light, with hints of vanilla and apricot, making is extremely mixable. Â While the standard Rum and Coke is a great go-to, why not branch out and try more delicious, but easy to make cocktails, like this Rum and Coke float.
When I was grocery shopping last I made sure to pick up some Bacardi Superior Rum.
I also picked up some Coca-Cola® Mini Cans. These mini cans are really great for this recipe, since a whole can would be too much.
Making this drink is so easy!
Start by pouring 1.5 ounces of Bacardi Rum into a glass or mason jar.
Add a scoop of chocolate ice cream.
Slowly pour a Coke Mini Can over the ice cream. It helps if the the Coke is cold, so that the ice cream doesn’t melt too quickly.
Top with whipped cream and a cherry if desired.
Just in case you wanted a printable version:

See, wasn’t that so easy?? I know when I’m hosting I don’t want to be stuck in the kitchen when I could be mingling. This drink is so easy guests can even put it together themselves.  Simply put all the ingredients out so that guests can create their perfect float. A little hint, or at least what I do when ice cream is involved: pre-scoop into cupcake liners, and keep in the freezer until it’s time for the party to start.  Then simply put the scoops into a dish so guest can just grab one and they are good to go.
What about you? What your favorite, easy to make, rum drink?Â
