Just in case you needed more reasons to drink V, here's another three... 🏅

We're proud to announce that all three of our rums have been recognised at The Rum & Cachaça Masters for their incredible taste and fine flavour. 😎 Judges detected notes of “toasted marshmallows” on the nose “complemented by depth of character on the palate – herbal and spicy." They went on to comment on V Overproof White Rum "Really great alcohol integration at this ABV, both appealing and characterful.”

V on TV!

Yesterday morning, V Spiced Rum was featured on ITV's Love Your Weekend with Alan Titchmarsh and Andy Clarke as they enjoyed a hot chocolate with a V twist.

After stating that he'd been "generous with the rum" Andy Clarke spoke about the story behind V Rum and the hot chocolate he had prepared for the show. "January is cold, we need a hug in a mug, a kiss in a glass, something to make us feel happy once all the sparkling lights have gone down."

Host, Alan Titchmarsh commented "This is heaven in a glass!" before Will Kirk said that the drinks were "absolutely wonderful".

Remarking "Isn't it heavenly!", actress Claire Rushbrook couldn't resist returning to the V Hot Chocolate after trying the other cocktails on offer.

If you missed it, you can go back and watch the episode with Andy now on ITV Player.

It's time for Best of British! Andy Clarke is here to serve up his pick of cosy cocktails to see us through the colder months! 🥂🔥

Putting the V into Vegan-uary with this twist on a Spiced Rum sour to keep you feeling all warm and fuzzy on these cold winter evenings ❄️ This recipe sidesteps the use of egg white in favour of vegan foamer which nails that frothy, creamy texture we all love from a rum sour.

Ingredients
- 50ml V Spiced Rum
- 5 drops Vegan Foamer
- 15ml Sugar Syrup
- 1 Lemon
- 2 drops of Banana Bergamot Bitters (optional)

Method
Combine V Spiced Rum, vegan foamer, sugar syrup, banana bergamot bitters and 25ml of freshly squeezed lemon juice into a shaker. Shake hard for 15 seconds. Strain and discard ice. Throw the mixture right back into the tin and give it another shake (this time without ice.) Strain, garnish and enjoy 🥃
