I make up my own fruity rum drinks at home. I like Cruzan dark rum so I usually start with a healthy dose of that and lots of ice. One of my faves has a splash of Rose's Lime Juice, a splash of either orange juice or pineapple juice (or both), and then fill it up with Trader Joe's Sparkling Cranberry Juice. Stir and drink, no blender needed! I make it without the rum for my son, and he loves it. You could use coconut rum instead and I bet that would be tasty, too.

We have tried almost all of the Rum and Fruit/Juice combinations mentioned above, and they all work. But we enjoy our Cruzan with a splash of Rose's Grenadine, for color and sweetness. It is always the 4th ingredient in a Rum Runner.Enjoy.
