Drink of the Day: Casa Blanca

March 30, 2015 | By | Add a Comment

The cocktail I am introducing today will be a nice kickoff to the spring. A fruity rum beverage you can enjoy when the weather warms up, enjoying your evenings out on the patio.

The combination of lime juice and maraschino cherry juice works well with the triple sec and rum. The cocktail’s color will be a great conversation piece.

The lime juice that I use in the video is Rose’s Lime, which is alright to use. However, if you have time, getting 100% Fresh Lime Juice will give you a less sweet, more refreshing beverage. Either way, you have an exceptional cocktail that will wow your friends.

Have a great Monday. Cheers!
