Very fruity with pineapple and citrusy rum sipped through port wine. A refreshing, easy-drinking crowd-pleaser.

History:

Created for Bacardí Legacy 2017 by Conor Myers at The Exchequer in Dublin, Ireland.

I wanted to create a drink that looked loud and fun, was efficient, low cost with a low alc./vol. and could potentially be a permanent fixture at Bacardí's festival circuit. I wanted to bring two subcultures closer together; Bacardí has always been a massive part of the whole underground music scene. 'Electric Avenue' represents all that is fun, large crowds and big venues – it pairs perfectly with loud thumping music and underground culture.
