Brugal Rum Punch

Who actually said you can’t wear white after Labor Day? That’s stupid – winter white is totally a thing, and so is white rum! We’re loving Brugal’s delectably dry white rum. Also, maybe you missed it, but yesterday was National Rum Punch Day, which is why this Peg Leg Punch is a must-have cocktail toasting the fact that it is time for the weekend.

Peg Leg Punch (Created by Kenneth McCoy – Rum House, Ward III)

1 bottle of Brugal Extra Dry Rum
