What is a good rum for making mojitos?

Answer 1

Ron Royal or Puerto Rican rum are pretty close to what you'd get in Havana. Just make sure you go for a select white rum.

Answer 2

for mojitos you need a good quality light rum, but I have used Appleton's rum and it came out great. That is my rum of choice and while it is not clear it is not a spiced rum, just oak aged so it worked really well. This is such a simple drink that you will taste the quality of your ingredients so use the good stuff. Ask you local beverage shop to recommend one for you.

Answer 3

Use a shot of white silver dry rum - Havana club Anjeo Blanco Silver Dry in case you favor some authentic authenticity, yet Bacardi Carta Blanca works properly; even if any white rum will do.

Answer 4

Any cuban rum should be good. If you live in the States, I guess you just have to go with a name brand and hope for the best.

Answer 5

believe it or not, Bacardi Limon is really good in a Mojito. Very refreshing!

Answer 6

Bacardi

Answer 7

Try anything that is aged, its smoother than a regular rum...if you live close to mexico or canada, hop the border and get havana club anejo
