Calling all Vancouver rum lovers...August 16th is National Rum Day!

Did you know that more rum is sold in Vancouver during these warm summer months than any other time of year? And did you also know that rum was originally called the Kill Devil and used to clean hair and keep it healthy in the 1800s? Well, it's true.

One of Vancouver's top mixologists, Lauren Mote and the bartending team from The Refinery is bringing sexy back - Flor de Cana Rum has chosen us to host rum-party on August 16 to celebrate National Rum Day. Simultaneously, rum lovers from across North America will toast their refreshing libations amongst friends. What better place to mingle with friends than the Refinery!

Drinking: $5 Flor de Cana rum cocktails - this includes a new list of cocktails, using homemade orgeat, ginger beer and bitters. Have you tried the gorgeous Rum Old Fashioned yet? You will.

Eating: What would a night at the Refinery be without the cities best internationally inspired and locally sourced menu? The Refinery's Ben de Champlain will conquer the ultimate Cuban inspired menu for rum lovers with their cocktails! Donations for the food will benefit the Growing Chefs of BC.

Time: 5:00pm - 10:00pm

Lauren will also show Kid Carson Show listeners how to create some classic rum cocktails and new cocktails for their own National Rum Day celebrations - this happens at 8:20 am sharp Monday August 16! She will even give away a National Rum Day prize pack that contains all the essentials for a great celebration including VIP swag, and GCs to the Refinery on National Rum Day!

Entertainment: This is easy-peasy-lemon-squeezy - DJ ERIC CARVER will ease you into the Island mood with funky-jazzy-disco beats.... he's a hit every Friday and Saturday, so we're bringing him back!
