Slocum & Sons celebrated National Mojito Day on July 11 with an online cocktail demonstration featuring Denizen Rum. With host and mixologist Noah King Smith, Key Account Manager, Slocum & Sons at the bar, the ongoing series features brands within the North Haven-based distributor’s portfolio. King Smith’s mojito showcased six fresh mint leaves, 2 ounces Denizen 3 Year Aged White Rum, 0.75 ounce fresh lime juice, 0.75 ounce lime zest-infused simple syrup (zest of one lime to 4 ounces sugar and 4 ounces hot water) and soda water for topping. Called Noah’s Cocktail Corner, the lively demonstrations have included a celebration for National Daiquiri Day with the creation of a Hemingway Daiquiri, featuring Ron Barcelo Blanco Rum, and showcased a summer offering, the Organic Cucumber Cooler, made from Mionetto Prosecco and Prairie Organic Spirits. All available videos are posted on the Slocum & Sons Facebook page for access anytime.
