Aristus
(72,523 posts)Dark rum, gold rum, coconut rum, Kahlua, mango liqueur, lime juice, and a dash of simple syrup, shaken, then strained into a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with a slice of pineapple.
Enjoy!
Go, Kamala!

(72,523 posts)I picked it up out of necessity when the local store was out of Lagavulin and Laphroiag.
I wasnt really impressed. I keep the rest of it around as a mixer, but its still moving slowly.

(72,523 posts)The music of the 90s is the soundtrack to so many important moments of my young adulthood.

(16,953 posts)oof. Got seriously twisted quite a few years ago, one night in Key West. It was the night they discovered the Atocha wreck, and quite a few people had bought shares in it. A crazy night on a crazy island. At Sloppy Joe's, met what we thought was a nice couple. Ended up in an aborted motorcycle ride (he ended up crashing in his driveway), cocaine (which I refused), a gun to convice me to try the coke (which scared the shit out of me), a garbage bag of weed, (which I suggested to lighten the mood, after the gun appearance), a potential flight in a private plane (yep, a drug dealer if you haven't guessed yet), and my eternal thanks to my lovely bride, for refusing to allow me to go, and for getting me the hell out of there.
So no, haven't had a rusty nail since....but enjoy the bent!
