The Calypso Craft Spiced Rum Maker's Kit is an exciting and unique DIY project for rum enthusiasts and those looking to create their own bespoke spiced rum at home. This kit allows you to make two bottles of your very own spiced rum in just under 48 hours, using only a bottle of supermarket unspiced or white rum (not included).
The heart of the Calypso Craft Spiced Rum Maker's Kit is our hand-packed blend sachets, carefully curated with a selection of artisan botanicals sourced from around the world. These botanicals have been chosen for their distinct flavors and aromas, which will transform an ordinary bottle of rum into a bottle of your very own spiced heaven.
To begin, simply add one of our blend sachets to a 750ml bottle of unspiced rum. Seal the bottle tightly and let it rest for 24 hours at room temperature. After 24 hours, gently heat the bottle in a water bath or in a saucepan over low heat for about 30 minutes. This step infuses the botanicals into the rum, releasing their flavors and aromas.
Once the infusion process is complete, strain the rum through a fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth into a clean, sterilized bottle. Discard the spent botanicals and let the strained rum rest for an additional 24 hours before enjoying.
With the Calypso Craft Spiced Rum Maker's Kit, you can create two bottles of your own dream spiced rum, either Caribbean Punch or Calypso Gold. Each kit contains everything you need to get started, including two hand-packed blend sachets, instructions, and a fun and educational experience.
This DIY project is perfect for rum lovers.
