Drinks Cocktails Rum Cocktails White Rum and Aperol Spritz Be the first to rate & review! Mildly spicy poblano liqueur and tangy passion fruit liqueur add delicious complexity to this white rum–spiked Aperol spritz from Ten to One distillery CEO/founder Marc Farrell. Boozy heat from white rum gives a pleasant bite to a bubbly summer staple. Choose your fizz: use sparkling water to let the spirits and liqueurs shine through, or use a splash of sparkling wine to tame the tart piquancy of the drink for a mellower sip. By Marc Farrell Marc Farrell Marc Farrell is the founder and CEO of the award-winning Caribbean rum brand Ten to One Rum. A former vice president at Starbucks, Farrell launched the top-shelf brand in 2019 to reframe the narrative of rum through the lens of his Caribbean heritage.
