Best Rum Sunset Cocktail Recipe Easy to Make At Home

One of the things I love best about traveling is trying the local cocktails. Key West definitely delivered with their cocktails one of which I loved Rum Sunset Cocktail. So good!

Imagine sitting on the dock, sipping a decadent cocktail as you watch the boats entering and leaving the marina. I literally could sit there all day long.

After our sunset cruise, we stopped at one of the local bars near the marina where I enjoyed a Rum Sunset Cocktail doing just that. It was so good that I had to write about it and give you the easy recipe below.

I have a few more beach cocktails from Key West that I will be adding here for you to also make at home. Definitely a fantastic trip! Ready? Here you go:
