Rum part of this blending process, light rums may be filtered to remove any colour gained during ageing. For darker rums, caramel may be added to adjust the colour of the final product. Artificial ageing attempts to match the molecular composition of aged rum using heat and light. Besides rum punches, cocktails such as the Cuba libre and daiquiri have well-known stories of their invention in the Caribbean. Tiki culture in the U.S. helped expand rum's horizons with inventions such as the mai tai and zombie.

Ita Mai Tai the Aptian-Turonian, Santonian-Maastrichtian and Paleocene-Eocene, oolithic limestones were deposited on Ita Mai Tai, presumably by reefs and living organisms in shallow water. Lifeforms that inhabited the seamount included algae, belemnites, bivalves, bryozoans, corals, decapods, echinoderms, foraminifera, gastropods, ostracods, pogonophora, rudists and sea urchins; their fossils have been recovered in the limestone from Ita Mai Tai and the rudists are the most commonly encountered reef builders on this seamount. The oolith-containing limestone was formed by a coral reef. The reef was affected by wave activity and there were lagoonal environments as well. Bioherms developed on the Gelendzhik seamount as well, where
