In this recipe, I added Malibu rum coconut to almond milk. No doubt, it is a good combination.

Also, Barbados rum is recognized as one of the finest (and strongest) in the world today.
Moreover, The Rum from Barbados is lighter, more refined, and has a lower percentage of alcohol compared to other rum.Â

Health Benefits of Rum
Stress reduction
According to studies, consumption of a moderate dose of alcohol after a mental stressor may help you rebound faster.
Heart health
Studies have shown that habitual light to moderate alcohol intake can lead to a decreased risk for coronary artery disease. It also helps with congestive heart failure and stroke.
Adverse effect
Although drinking alcohol can provide certain social and relaxation benefits, there are substantial drawbacks if you drink too much. Thus, you should consider this if you choose to include rum in your diet.
The key is to drink moderately! Cheers!
