Derek from the Make and Drink YouTube Channel joins me to answer the question, which spiced rum is the best for mixing. Spiced rums are often the domain of rum and cokes or rum and ginger beer but we wanted to try a number of quality rums in cocktails that specifically call for spiced rums. We're making three different cocktails with Foursquare Spiced, Don Q Oak Barrel Spiced, Lemon Hart Blackpool and Maggie's Farm Spiced. In addition, we try those rums in some rum balls.
