Discover The Best Rum Cocktails To Celebrate World Rum Day 2022
It's World Rum Day on Saturday 9th July, so naturally we'll be having a Hattiers rum cocktail or two to celebrate.
The brilliant team at Trailer Happiness in Notting Hill have been serving the finest classic and original cocktails with a Tiki twist since 2003 and certainly know their way around a good rum, so when they decided to create a trio of cocktails featuring Hattiers Rum and our good friends over at QUBA, we knew that it was time to get the party started...
