Funk Harbor Rum & Cola
Some cocktails are born from complexity, requiring precise measurements and specialized techniques. Others achieve perfection through simplicity—and few drinks embody this truth better than the classic rum and cola. Known throughout the Caribbean as a Cuba Libre when served with lime, this timeless combination has been a staple at beach bars, backyard gatherings, and late-night celebrations for generations.
What makes this drink truly special isn’t elaborate preparation—it’s the quality of the rum you choose. Funk Harbor Rum transforms this simple classic into something extraordinary. Whether you prefer the smooth, versatile character of our Silver Rum or the rich, complex depths of our award-winning Dark Rum, each brings its own personality to the glass. The caramel sweetness of cola complements the rum’s natural sugarcane notes, while a squeeze of fresh lime cuts through with brightness and balance.
This is the drink of easy afternoons and effortless evenings, proof that the best things in life don’t have to be complicated. Just premium rum, cold cola, plenty of ice, and good company—everything you need for a perfect moment.
