About Hummer

The Hummer is a decadent and indulgent cocktail that combines the richness of coffee liqueur, the tropical warmth of light rum, and the creamy sweetness of vanilla ice cream. This delightful blend results in a smooth, dessert-like drink that is both refreshing and satisfying. The Hummer's texture is akin to a milkshake, making it an ideal choice for those who enjoy creamy, sweet beverages with a kick.

The origins of the Hummer cocktail trace back to the mid-1960s in Detroit, Michigan. It was created by Jerome Adams, a bartender at the Bayview Yacht Club. The drink quickly gained popularity due to its unique combination of ingredients and its irresistible flavor profile. Over the years, the Hummer has become a classic, especially in the Midwest, and remains a favorite for those looking to indulge in a luxurious, dessert-style cocktail.

This cocktail is alcoholic, so drink responsibly! Best served in a Highball Glass, though any glass works!

Feel free to get creative with substitutions — try different fruit types, sugar substitutes, or liquor brands. Crafting cocktails should be fun!
