You may also have seen drinkers enjoying rum as winter approaches, as it is considered good to drink it in moderation.
In case of cold in winter, it is advised to drink rum mixed with warm water. Drinking rum in moderation also reduces the risk of heart attack.
You may also be fond of bringing out a peg of rum in winter, but do you know what the real rules are for drinking rum?
Rum is prepared by fermenting sugarcane juice. It contains 40% alcohol, so it should not be consumed more than two pegs.
If your rum is over 40% ABV, dilute it with water first. Try to buy only rum with 40% ABV.
If the rum tastes sharp, it is of cheap quality, but if it tastes sweet and smoky, it is the best rum.
Rum comes in both white and black varieties, but dark colored rum should always be drunk as it is considered better.
Rum can be mixed with any liquid, but both must be mixed well first because rum does not mix easily.
Note: In some circumstances alcohol consumption is harmful to health. Consult experts for more information.
