Diageo owned, Captain Morgan Original Spiced Rum has partnered with renowned jeweler Ben Baller to present a set of diamond-encrusted shot glasses for the “Captain on Ice” holiday campaign. 

The new holiday-inspired collaboration features a pair of limited edition shot glasses coated in solid yellow gold with diamonds encrusted on the bottom marking the glass as “2 of 2.”  The Captain Morgan and BB collaborative insignia run down the middle of the pair.

Along with launching the lavish glasses, Ben Baller also presents his signature drink of choice, The Ice and Spice, specially crafted with the Captain Morgan Original Spiced Rum.

The self-proclaimed “best jeweler in the world” created a special cocktail to hallmark the occasion. The Ice and Spice features Captain Morgan Original Spiced Rum in a seasonal flavor profile. 

According to HypeBeast, “I wanted to create something that was a universal drink, something that’s not too difficult to make at home,” Baller explains. “You got an ounce and a half of Captain Morgan Original Spiced Rum, an ounce of cranberry – half an ounce of lemon juice topped with seltzer water, garnished with cranberries, and fresh lemon garnish it’s just perfect.”
