 New Statesman - Drink - Victoria Moore on the renaissance of Barcardi
Then one of my more glamorous friends (her idea of a crisis is discovering that her opera-singer boyfriend is about to give up the evening job to become a policeman) sailed into a bar and ordered a Bacardi-tonic right in front of several people she knew.
"And I like asking for Bacardi because it sounds so naff and people always giggle and say, 'So that's what media girls drink now.'" So I looked around, and realised that those people who two years ago replaced their vodka-cranberries with vodka-tonics are beginning to move on to something with a little more flavour.
We've perhaps been reintroduced to Bacardi through cocktails based on white rum (the caipirissima, a variation on the cachaca-based caipirinha, and the daiquiri) from which it's a small step to the longer, more refreshing rum and tonic.
