Bear in mind that not all rum cocktails were created equal. There are many variations, and they will not all work with spiced rum. Below, we provide 16 cocktail recipes for Captain Morgan Spiced Gold (or similar). Let’s start mixing!
The Best Malibu Rum Drink
This rum cocktail is like a vacation in a glass! Malibu Rum is the world’s best-selling coconut-flavored Caribbean rum and it can be used to make a variety of delightfully summery concoctions.
Rum Sunset Cocktail
This simple three-ingredient cocktail combines spiced rum with orange juice and grenadine, plus a twist of lime. It’s quick and will work for just about any occasion.
Pineapple Ginger Mojito with Spiced Rum
This refreshing drink tastes as good as it looks. Garnished with a wedge of pineapple, this mojito includes fresh pineapple juice, lime, and (of course) spiced rum. It’s a sweet and spicy twist on the classic recipe.
Autumn Spiced Rum Punch
This gorgeous fall punch is perfect for Halloween and Thanksgiving celebrations. It’s packed with crisp apples, orange juice, orange slices, apple cider, pear chunks, cinnamon sticks, spiced rum, and more!
Spiced and Cola
The original spiced rum cocktail. All you need is Captain Morgan Spiced Rum and Coca-Cola to create this simple and popular drink.
Long Island Spiced Tea
We take the traditional Long Island Iced Tea and add a touch more spice with spiced rum. Consume with caution: this one packs a punch!
Drunken Monkey
This deceptively strong drink bursting with tropical flavors will make you feel like you’ve been swept off to the Caribbean. It’s a vibrant fruity tiki drink combining coconut rum, spiced rum, and bitters with fruit juice and a garnish of your choice.
Spiced Rum Coffee
Similar to an Irish coffee, this yummy drink is hot and creamy with cinnamon and a hint of chocolate. The rum is subtle and warming, making this a delicious tipple to enjoy before bed.
Cable Car Cocktail
A modern classic, the Cable Car is an adaptation of the rum sidecar with a nod to San Francisco’s iconic transportation system. The cocktail is a zesty and spicy combination of orange liqueur, spiced rum, and cinnamon that is simply glorious for fall.
Spiced Dark and Stormy
This impressive-looking cocktail consists of only three ingredients: spiced rum, ginger beer and lime. It’s the perfect drink to enjoy in the garden or at a barbecue on a hot day.
Rum Runner
This recipe stays close to the classic and can be adapted easily to suit your taste buds. With subtle spicy notes and plenty of fruity flavor, it will give you the tropical island vibes you’ve been craving.
Spiced Piña Colada
Take a mini vacation to a tropical paradise with this Spiced Piña Colada. It’s even more delicious than the original but still delivers that creamy coconut goodness you know and love.
Fall in Paradise
This spiced rum cocktail provides plenty of tropical warmth to chase away the chill in cooler weather. You will need apple cider, peach bitters, rum, lime juice, pineapple juice, and homemade Allspice Dram (recipe included).
Hurricane
This drink will get the party going, so be sure to serve it at your next soirée. It’s a delightful blend of rum, fruit juices, and grenadine.
Blood Orange Rum Sour
This short and elegant drink is an easy cocktail to serve when friends come over. It’s sweet, tart, and so refreshing!
Apple Rum Cocktail
Change up this refreshing apple cooler by using white rum in summer and spiced rum in winter or fall. Best of all, you don’t need a cocktail shaker to make it. Simply pour, stir, serve, and enjoy.
