The reimagined Yum-Yum cocktail is a vibrant, tropical delight that harmoniously balances the sweetness of mango and peach with the zest of lime. Enhanced with a touch of honey syrup and a hint of bitters, this version offers a more complex flavor profile while retaining its refreshing essence.

Ingredients

  • 1 oz white rum (e.g., Appleton Estate Reserve)
  • 1 oz coconut rum (e.g., Malibu)
  • 1 oz mango juice (preferably fresh or high-quality bottled)
  • 1 oz peach juice
  • ½ oz fresh lime juice
  • ¼ oz honey syrup (1:1 honey and water)
  • 2 dashes of aromatic bitters (e.g., Angostura)
  • Crushed ice
  • Garnish: Lime wheel and mint sprig

Steps to Make It

  1. Prepare the honey syrup by combining equal parts honey and warm water. Stir until fully dissolved and let it cool.
  2. In a cocktail shaker, combine the white rum, coconut rum, mango juice, peach juice, fresh lime juice, honey syrup, and bitters.
  3. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds until well-chilled.
  4. Fill a double old-fashioned glass with crushed ice.
  5. Strain the cocktail over the crushed ice.
  6. Garnish with a lime wheel and a sprig of fresh mint.
  7. Serve immediately and enjoy the tropical flavors!
