    When you pour it in the glass, the coke will mix up with the rum. You can stir it up to get a more even flavor. But if you like it to have a strong finish, don't stir it when you pour the coke in.

Tips & Warnings
  • Find a rum that you like best.
  • Different brands of rum can be stronger, weaker, or smoother than other brands.
  • Then experiment with the amount of rum/coke in your drink, maybe do a double shot, or half a shot. Start with 1 shot and work from there to find your preference.
  • Be responsible. Drink in moderation.
  • Don't drink and drive.
  • Avoid Butter-Rum, it doesn't mix as well with coke as other rums (ie: spided rum, dark rum, etc).
