For an extra touch of elegance, consider using a highball glass. Adjust the amount of lime juice to your personal preference. Some prefer a more tart flavor profile. Mexican Coke, made with cane sugar, provides a richer, less processed cola flavor that complements the rum beautifully. Experiment with different types of rum to discover your favorite combination. Dark rums offer a bolder taste, while white rums provide a cleaner, crisper finish.
