If the bartender made it correctly, a rum and coke should contain exactly one shot (1.5 fl oz) of rum. This is considered one standard drink (same alcohol content as a 12 oz can of beer, 8 oz glass of wine, etc) However, many times bartenders take the liberty to make their drink "stronger" or "weaker". There can be much more or less alcohol mixed in, depending on the maker. If your bartender just pours the rum in without measuring, there is a good chance it will be stronger than it should. Also, if you ask for a "double", the drink will be made with 2 shots (3 oz) of rum. If the bartender made it correctly, a rum and coke should contain exactly one shot (1.5 fl oz) of rum.
