Rum and coke is not all bad. Without the humble cuba libre I would never have gotten into rum.
I still sometimes order a rum and coke when I'm out in bars or clubs, but usually only when the options are limited (which is often the case in late-night establishments in the UK).
I usually drink my rum straight these days, or more recently in cocktails and mixed drinks, especially when drinking with my girlfriend. I've recently discovered ginger beer, which I find impossibly delicious on its own, and even more so when mixed with a good rum!
I'll have to try and get hold of that book!
