Nothing revitalizes the body on a hot Caribbean day like a tall refreshing rum cocktail and this concoction provides the perfect complement to the powdery pink sands and the turquoise waters of Barbuda. Uncle Roddy’s iconic Barbuda Smash was served to royal guests at K-Club resort during the 1990s and it’s still a favourite today.
