Free rum? Yes please. While today might be World Chocolate Day, there’s another global celebration worth getting involved in this weekend, too: World Rum Day.
And to mark the occasion, a Deansgate cocktail bar will be giving away 100 Rum Daiquiris to lucky Mancunians.
Rendition, which opened on the corner of Deansgate and Bootle Street in June last year, will be hosting a Golden Ticket competition this weekend on World Rum Day, Saturday, July 9.

To be in with a chance, customers will need to sign up to Rendition’s emails on July 9, with the first 100 to do so receiving a Golden Ticket, which will entitle them to one free drink the same day.
Successful winners will have to show their Golden Ticket at the bar to claim their free Daiquiri and say ‘cheers’ to the weekend. For those unfamiliar with the cocktail, it’s traditionally made with rum, lime juice and simple syrup.
Rum-lovers can carry on festivities into the night, with other rum cocktails including the fruity Rumba Punch, with Havana 3 Rum, campari, cointreau and orgeat, and the zesty Palm Springs made with Decorrum, apple and lime.
But not to worry, if rum isn’t your usual tipple - Rendition has plenty of other options to celebrate with your rum-enthusiast mates, including a Caramel Espresso Martini or classic Pink Margarita.
The cocktail bar and kitchen recently launched its bottomless brunch offering, which takes place every Saturday from 10am to 2pm following a successful daily brunch menu running Monday to Saturday. You can find our review here.
