🩸🧟‍♂️The Zombie Guts cocktail is a fun Halloween drink made with raspberry and grape jello, vodka, and soda, drizzled with grenadine for a creepy look!

Who knew we've had a guide to which rum to use for different cocktails for over 50 years?

In case you missed it in the Nov 20th, 1970, issue of LIFE Magazine, here it is:

BACARDI light rum. Its subtle flavor makes it perfect for daiquiris, the Bacardi Cocktail, martinis, or with fruit juices, soda or tonic. Use Bacardi light rather than gin or vodka. Daiquiri Recipe: Squeeze 1/2 lime or lemon. Add 1/2 teaspoon sugar, jigger of Bacardi, ice. Shake and serve. (Or use a daiquiri mix.) For the Bacardi Cocktail, add a teaspoon of grenadine.

BACARDI dark rum. Slightly more pronounced in flavor, yet smooth and mellow. Best for highballs, sours, rum & colas, Manhattans, eggnog, on-the-rocks, with water, hot rum drinks or any mixer. Use Bacardi dark rather than whiskey.

BACARDI 151. A very high proof rum. Enjoy it in exotic drinks like the Mai-Tai, in hot rum drinks, gourmet cooking and dramatic flaming dishes.

ANEJO. The world's smoothest liquor? Quite possibly. Anejo is the ultimate rum. It's been delicately aged. So it is very dry and mellow. In fact, many connoisseurs prefer it to brandy. Sip it from a snifter. Enjoy it in a highball or on-the-rocks. Magnifico.
