A Frozen Rum & Coke Drink Recipe
Summer calls for cold cocktails—wine, martinis, beer, or a bright frozen drink that won’t weigh you down. This Rum and Coke Slushie is a spin on the classic Rum and Coke (or Captain and Coke) with a fruity, boozy slush twist. It blends cranberry-cherry juice with plenty of ice and rum, then finishes with a splash of cola for fizz and sweetness.
If you enjoy rum, you might also like other rum cocktails or even hosting a rum tasting with friends. But for a quick, crowd-pleasing option while you’re relaxing outdoors, this frozen slushie is hard to beat.
The combination of tart cranberry-cherry juice and cola gives the drink a layered flavor—fruity and slightly tart from the juice, rounded and fizzy from the soda, and warmed by spiced rum. It’s reminiscent of a theater slushie, but adult and boozy.
How To Make A Rum and Coke Slushie
This drink must be made fresh, but it only takes minutes. Place the juice, rum, and ice in a blender and process until the mixture reaches a slush consistency. Pour into glasses, then top with cola for a fizzy finish. Garnish with fresh cherries and serve immediately.
Serve in any glass you like—novelty or classic—whatever makes the moment more fun. I used a pirate-style glass to match the rum theme, but any lowball or tumbler works perfectly.
