Great, but try using Demerara syrup or adding bitters to set it apart from an ordinary rum and juice

A simple and very tasty cocktail. I absolutely agree that a bit of Demerara syrup lifts the taste.

Made with Plantation 3 Star as ran out of gold rum- added 4 drops of Bobs (Diffords) Daiquiri Bitters- well balanced and the bitters gives it an extra depth to its refreshing zingocity...will definitely make again.

Also really good made with Bacardi Reserva Ocho and a wee bit of demerara in the rich syrup.

Orange Juice adds an interesting element to this cocktail. Perfectly balanced and not too sweet. I did use a bit less sugar syrup, but my oranges were very sweet. Stay with the original if your oranges tend to be a bit sour.
