วิธีทำ

Mix all ingredients together and strain into a Collins glass. Use Jamaican rum where possible for a more authentic taste.

Fruity Strong

Funk and Soul is a refreshing tropical cocktail combining rum with apricot nectar, pomegranate juice, lemon juice, and soda water, served in a Collins glass. The combination of stone fruit, pomegranate, and citrus creates a vibrant, layered fruit profile, while the rum provides the alcoholic backbone. Jamaican rum is recommended for its funky, fruity character.

History & Origins

Funk and Soul is a contemporary cocktail with no documented single origin, reflecting the trend of tropical, multi-fruit rum cocktails that became popular in the craft cocktail revival of the late 20th and early 21st centuries. The name celebrates the funky, aromatic quality of Jamaican pot-still rum. Its authorship is disputed.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: apricot and pomegranate with a tropical rum note and a bright lemon citrus. Palate: fruity and slightly tart with pomegranate's tannic sweetness and apricot nectar's stone-fruit richness balanced by the lemon and soda water's effervescence. Finish: clean, fruity, and refreshing with a lingering pomegranate and citrus note.
