You ferment molasses like beer. then when it is finished you distill it using a pot still it must be a pot still to retain the flavour. when the distilate is collected it is diluted to 40% or 80 proof. this is then white rum. usually a foul tasting spirit. either use rum essence to flavour it or leave it in a glass container for a year. this will make Bacardi. or age in an oak barrel for 4-7 years to make golden rum.

IMPORTANT - when distilling throw the first 100-150ml away this is methanol and will make you blind!

It is illegal to distill alcohol in the UK and other places so check with local law enforcement first.

(Having tried i would say its easier to buy it)

Good look Oliver
