Learn about the island’s history and legacy of making some of the world’s best rums while walking amid the walled-in Old San Juan ramparts. Then step inside a local watering hole and take a seat at the bar. Relish the chance to learn from the in-house mixologist on how to concoct three popular tropical cocktails using fresh ingredients and Puerto Rican rum. You’ll then get to choose a cocktail to sip on … will it be the Cuba Libre (Rum & Coca-Cola), a frozen coconut-based Pina Colada, or the lime and mint-infused Mojito? Your spirited day also includes a small sampling of the island’s world-famous aged rum. Cheers to fun adventures in Puerto Rico!
