Something you can make with white rum
Origin
White rum originated in the Caribbean, specifically in countries such as Barbados, Jamaica, and Puerto Rico. It is believed to have been first produced in the 17th century by Caribbean sugarcane plantation workers who discovered that molasses, a byproduct of sugar production, could be fermented and distilled into a spirit. The popularity of white rum quickly spread throughout the region and eventually gained international recognition. Today, white rum is produced in various countries around the world, but its Caribbean roots remain at the heart of its origin.
