On a hot summer day or while on vacation, a frozen tropical drink can be just what you need to wind down. The combination of orange juice and ice cream creates a drink that is fruity and creamy. Rum is a sweet alcohol that may be made from sugar cane liquid, molasses or cane syrup. Mix these ingredients in various ways to create tasty and refreshing drink.
