The Rum Runner is a very popular drink that is filled with fruit flavor. It can either be shaken or blended and both options create a delicious tropical, more specifically, tiki cocktail. If you cannot find Falernum (an almond, ginger, lime and spiced sugar syrup) that is used in many rum cocktails you can use grenadine instead.
