Wish you were sipping a Caribbean cocktail in your dream Caribbean destination? This can become a reality right here in Boston, during the fifth Caribbean Rum and Food Festival.

Join the Caribbean American and New England community in celebrating this year’s theme: “The Caribbean on Display.”

Showcasing products, rum, arts and crafts, jewelry and entertainment, take yourself on an immersive journey through the Caribbean. Dance to music from a live reggae band and live DJ as you sample rum and cocktails from vendors and two bars.

“Lots of people don’t even realize that the Caribbean has so many different cocktails,” said Andrew Sharpe, chairman of the Authentic Caribbean Foundation Inc.

Attendees are greeted with a welcome drink, Caribbean rum punch, and can even learn how to make and sample a variety of Caribbean cocktails by watching their demonstrations.

“This is a unique event because this is the only Caribbean rum and food festival,” Sharpe added.
