You’ll learn about the history of rum cocktails from pirates and privateers to mid-century tiki bars all the way through the modern cocktail movement, all while building drinks yourself. Along with a new-found appreciation for the storied history of rum, you’ll take away new inspiration for drinks and garnishes you can put to use at your home bar.
