Cocktail Description
The Sunset Sails cocktail captures that magical moment when day melts into evening—a vibrant mix of colors and flavors that's as visually stunning as it tastes.
This elegant cocktail combines the clean, crisp profile of Plantation 3 Stars white rum with the orange-infused complexity of Grand Marnier, balanced perfectly by freshly squeezed orange juice and a touch of tart cranberry. The result is a sophisticated sipper that offers bright citrus notes upfront, followed by subtle rum warmth and a pleasant, slightly dry finish. Relatively simple to make with just four ingredients, it requires only basic shaking technique, making it accessible for home bartenders with minimal equipment. The Sunset Sails shines at sunset happy hours, sophisticated dinner parties, or anytime you want to elevate a gathering without spending the entire evening mixing drinks. Its versatile flavor profile pairs beautifully with seafood dishes like grilled shrimp or ceviche, but it's equally at home alongside light appetizers or salty snacks that complement its fruit-forward character.
