Rum
Rum is a distilled alcoholic beverage made from fermented sugarcane juice, molasses, or other sugar-based ingredients. It typically originates from tropical regions like the Caribbean, Latin America, and parts of Asia. The fermentation converts sugars into alcohol, and then the liquid is distilled to concentrate the alcohol content. Rum can vary in flavor, color, and sweetness depending on the ingredients, fermentation process, and aging. It’s often enjoyed neat, in cocktails, or used in cooking. As an alchoholic drink, it’s important to consume responsibly, understanding its potency and cultural significance.
