How do you order rum and coke?

Answered by Edward Huber

When ordering a rum and coke, it’s important to be specific about the type or brand of rum you want. This helps the bartender understand your preferences and ensure they serve you exactly what you desire. Here’s an example of how you can order a rum and coke:

“Can I please have a Bacardi and coke?”

In this case, you’ve specified that you want Bacardi rum mixed with coke. Bacardi is a popular brand of rum, and when you mention it first, the bartender knows exactly which rum to use. By saying “and coke” after the brand name, you’re indicating that you want the rum mixed with Coca-Cola.

If you prefer a different brand of rum, simply replace “Bacardi” with your preferred choice. For instance:

“May I have a Captain Morgan and coke, please?”

In this example, you’ve requested Captain Morgan rum mixed with coke. Captain Morgan is another well-known brand of rum, and by mentioning it first, you’re making it clear to the bartender which rum you’d like in your drink.

Remember to be polite and courteous when placing your order. Bartenders appreciate clear and concise requests, so they can efficiently prepare your drink.
