Bumbo Instructions
The Bumbo cocktail is a classic drink that has been enjoyed for centuries. It is a strong and flavorful rum-based cocktail that is perfect for sipping on a summer evening.
To make a Bumbo, you will need a few simple ingredients. Start by adding two ounces of dark rum to a glass. You can use any type of dark rum that you prefer, but some popular choices include Gosling's Black Seal, Myers's Original Dark, or Appleton Estate Signature Blend.
Next, add one ounce of fresh lime juice to the glass. The lime juice adds a tangy and refreshing flavor to the cocktail. If you prefer a sweeter drink, you can also add a teaspoon of simple syrup to the mix.
Once you have added the rum and lime juice (and simple syrup, if desired), fill the glass with crushed ice. Use a spoon or cocktail muddler to gently stir the ingredients together, ensuring that they are well combined.
Finally, garnish your Bumbo with a lime wheel or a cherry, and serve with a straw. Enjoy this delicious and timeless cocktail!
