Dine Brands Global-owned restaurant chain Applebee’s Neighborhood Grill + Bar has introduced its new $10 Bacardi Rum Buckets in the US for a limited period.

The tropical-flavoured cocktails are served in bucket-shaped containers and combine Bacardi Superior and Bacardi Lime spirits.

The Bacardi Rum Buckets come in three flavours: the Rum Breeze Bucket, the Tropical Mama Bucket and the Party on the Beach Bucket.

The Rum Breeze Bucket is a mix of Bacardi Superior Rum, Malibu Coconut Rum, blue curacao, lemon, pineapple juice, and lemon-and-lime soda.

The Tropical Mama Bucket offers a Bacardi Lime Rum, crème de banana liqueur, grenadine, pineapple, and orange juice, finished with lemon-and-lime soda.

The Party on the Beach Bucket features Bacardi Lime Rum, peach schnapps, passion fruit, pineapple and orange juice.

Applebee’s has also introduced Spring Break Sips.

The $5 ADIOS is a blue Long Island Iced Tea variant made with Smirnoff Vodka, Bacardi Superior rum, Tanqueray gin, blue curacao and premium lemon sour, topped with lemon-and-lime soda and served in the signature Mucho glass.

Anon-alcoholic option is available with the $4 Mocktail on the Beach, which includes Ocean Spray Cranberry, orange juice, peach, and lemon-and-lime soda.

Applebee’s beverage innovation vice-president Patrick Kirk said: “This spring, Applebee’s has buckets of fun – and Bacardi – for our guests to enjoy a tasty tropical getaway.

“Whether going big and enjoying the tropical flair of our new Bacardi Rum Buckets or our signature Spring Break Sips, including our “buzz-free”, non-alcoholic Mocktail on the Beach, Applebee’s has your tropical escape covered. Don’t miss your chance to say “bucket” and relax with friends and family!”

The launch follows Applebee’s introduction of new cocktails in the US in November 2023.

These included the Tipsy Reindeer, a festive punch made with Smirnoff vodka, Ocean Spray cranberry juice, pomegranate and premium lemon sour, garnished with a Santa gummi.
