    He’d have meant soda water, so just fizzy water - in one of the books he stipulates Perrier. I’d not heard of a rum and soda; whisky and soda is more common (see Moonraker).

    Thanks @Agent_99 watered down Mount Gay sounds yuk! I love it neat myself!

    Personally I like it with Coke, which isn’t very Bondian!

    Not at all. It's also bad for your teeth, with all the sugar.

    Aquired my first bottle of Mount Gay XO a few weeks ago and have thoroughly enjoyed it. I might have to try the soda thing. That might seriously just be a nice summer day drinking option.

    I actually tried it with lemonade and ice last night and it was surprisingly very good.

    A nice drink on a summer evening.

    (That's British lemonade by the way as I think in the US it's quite different?)

    Rum and Coke is a fine drink.

    In CR, the Mount Gay (Jamaican rum) and soda looks like it was mixed with cola to me. And Bond doesn't skip a beat.

    I've recently moved house. Photos of the Bond collection coming soon, but meanwhile here's my drinks cabinet.

    Mojito time!

    (Did I buy this rum because I was pleased that LALD had taught me what a duppy was? Maybe. It's good, anyway.)
