SPARKLING RUM RUNNER
Rum Runners typically involve blackberry brandy, banana liqueur, and grenadine. I used fresh and broiled fruit, fruit juice, and a little bubbly water for a light, but still fruity update. Garnish glasses with pineapple wedges and cocktail picks threaded with blackberries.

BANANA STRAWBERRY RUM RUNNER SMOOTHIE RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Number Of Ingredients 8
Steps:
- Blend all ingredients.
Tips:
- Choose the right rum. A light, flavorful rum, such as Bacardi or Cruzan, is a good choice for Rum Runners. If you prefer a darker, more robust rum, try Gosling's Black Seal or Mount Gay Eclipse.
- Use fresh fruit juices. Fresh fruit juices add a bright, tropical flavor to Rum Runners. Orange juice, pineapple juice, and lime juice are all classic choices, but you can also experiment with other fruits, such as mango, papaya, or guava.
- Add a splash of grenadine. Grenadine adds a touch of sweetness and color to Rum Runners. Be careful not to add too much, or the drink will become too sweet.
- Serve Rum Runners chilled. Rum Runners are best served chilled, either on the rocks or frozen. If you're serving them frozen, blend all of the ingredients together until smooth.
- Garnish with a pineapple wedge or cherry. A pineapple wedge or cherry adds a festive touch to Rum Runners. You can also garnish them with a lime wedge or a sprig of mint.
