The Captain's Summer Twist
Captain Morgan rolled out Orange Vanilla Twist in March 2020 as that year's limited summer edition — a deliberately nostalgic pour that trades the usual spiced-rum warmth for an orange-and-vanilla swirl, the flavour of a melted creamsicle. The summer edition even carried a run of playful label designs. It is the lightest-hearted bottle in the Captain's cabinet: sweet, fruity and made for long drinks rather than slow sipping.

Tasting Notes
Per the brand's own description: sweet and fruity, led by fresh orange and rich vanilla in a creamsicle-like combination — orange up front, vanilla softening the finish. The rum keeps it simple and lets the two flavours do the work.
How to Enjoy
The brand's serves are built for summer: pour it long with cola or with ginger ale over ice, or blend it with ice and orange juice into a frozen slushie — the serve the brand calls the Frozen Crewdriver, garnished with an orange slice. More mixing rums are in our rum collection.

Is Orange Vanilla Twist a permanent Captain Morgan flavour?
