Pour in sailor Jerrys rum, top with a real c1950 cola beverage. I like the Mexican coke, but lately I have been using Pepsi Throwback. I think rum mixes better when you use a cola that has real sugar in it, not high fructose corn syrup. Mixing a drink with diet soda is just silly, it does not taste as good, and the alcohol is going to add about 200-500 calories to your drink anyway. It's like eating two big macs for lunch and getting the diet soda to drink because your watching your weight.
