Come to this Belize Island for the Sun and Stay for the Rum!

Sun and Rum Belize

Few beverages have captured the imaginations more than rum, a drink with deep roots in India where it was first fermented around 350 BC. By the 1400s, rum was an essential item for explorers who couldn’t count on safe water as they traveled the seas. Central America became a major hub for rum production—especially Belize.

Why have Belize rum makers gained international reputations? They’re not afraid to take chances! Developing new flavors and experimenting with distillation techniques, Belize’s reputation for innovation and variety keeps growing. Where do the world’s most avid connoisseurs gather? At Manta Island Resort, where all-inclusive packages include unlimited local rum cocktails. Check out this sampling of rum specialties:

-Mosquito Bite. The only buzz you’ll experience when enjoying this tantalizing drink made of Belize coconut rum, brandy, and mango juice is pure bliss.

-Pirate Flag. No Jolly Roger flag is required to salute this adventurous cocktail that blends coconut rum and Diet Coke with a lime wedge. If you’re not worried about your physique, order your drink with regular Coke.

-Dark & Stormy. Tropical weather changes won’t bother you because the sun pops up so frequently. Salute the resort’s welcoming environment with this soothing gold rum and ginger ale beverage.
