This is a simple highball variation on the vodka Screwdriver template, using rum as the base spirit.
Best for brunch, poolside service, and easy two-ingredient rum drinks.
Light rum gives clean sugarcane warmth and orange juice supplies citrus sweetness, acidity, and body.
Simple, citrusy, bright, and casual.
Use fresh orange juice for a brighter drink or add a splash of soda water for a lighter cooler.
