Cocktail Description

Imagine a cocktail with all the precision of a professional mixologist but the breezy charm of your most laid-back friend – that's the Berry White Martini in a nutshell.

This elegant yet approachable cocktail blends Plantation 3 Stars white rum with rich Crème de Cassis and fresh lime juice to create a perfectly balanced drink that's simultaneously bright, tart, and subtly sweet. The blackcurrant liqueur provides a gorgeous berry backbone against the clean, crisp rum, while lime juice adds just enough acidity to keep everything lively on your palate. It's surprisingly simple to make at home, requiring just a good shake with ice and a fine strain into a chilled martini glass. The Berry White makes a perfect pre-dinner cocktail for intimate gatherings or dinner parties, especially in spring and summer when its fruit-forward profile feels particularly refreshing. This versatile sipper pairs beautifully with seafood appetizers like ceviche or shrimp cocktail, but can equally hold its own alongside spicy Asian cuisine where its subtle sweetness provides a welcome counterpoint.
