The 155 Belmont belongs to the Rum Punch family. It’s a modern twist on classic Caribbean cocktails, incorporating vodka for a contemporary edge. Its precise origin is unknown, but the combination of rums and orange juice suggests a playful homage to the sun-drenched islands.
The 155 Belmont is a complex and balanced blend. The dark rum provides a rich, molasses-forward sweetness, while the light rum adds a lighter, more fruity note. The vodka brings a clean, neutral base, and the orange juice contributes a refreshing citrus acidity. The result is a well-rounded cocktail with a smooth, approachable taste that finishes with a hint of spice.
For the 155 Belmont, balance is key. Use a high-quality dark rum for depth and a lighter rum for brightness. Vodka adds a clean, neutral base. Freshly squeezed orange juice is essential, and you can adjust the amount to your taste. Shake well with ice to chill and dilute, and strain into a chilled glass. Garnish with an orange peel for a touch of citrus.
