The Venus Rum cocktail has a light refreshing flavor, a nice fizzy quality, and double standard alcohol strength. It’s actually a rare combination, since most drinks featuring soda water use a lot of it, and consequently don’t have much of a kick. This particular drink reverses that ratio.

This cocktail goes well with a light meal or just before dinner. It’s great for unwinding.
