For the upcoming National Rum Day, Brugal 1888 Rum will be paying one lucky person $1,888 to bring the "spirit of the Dominican Republic" into their home by adding a hammock. As many people find it easier to relax and enjoy the present moment when they are on vacation, the rum brand is aiming to inspire people to experience a different state of mind in their daily life by setting their living space up like an oasis.

For a shot at winning the $1,888, consumers in participating states of the legal drinking age are invited to follow the rum brand on [Instagram](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/americas-worst-home-bartender) and share what type of 1888 Rum cocktail they'd like to enjoy in a hammock and tag the person they would want to share the drinking experience with.
