Mount gay eclipse mojito

The Nevada is a drink I found in the book Art of the Bar. It&#;s a great summertime rum drink that differs from the usual rum punch variety of drinks by not being overly sweet. If you make one at sunset at the beach, you can admire the beautiful color as you sip it on the deck.

We just got back from Salt Cay in Turks and Caicos, where we discovered some Salt Cay Rum. I&#;m using that here just for the heck of it, but a better rum would be Mount Gay Eclipse (or even Extra Old if you&#;re feeling adventurous). You definitely want a rum on the vanilla/syrupy side of the rum range for this drink. Turns out that Salt Cay rum is more appreciate a central American rum (it is modeled after Zacapa), but we&#;ll ignore that distinction for now.

The Nevada
oz dark rum
.5 oz fresh grapefruit juice
.3 oz fresh lime juice
oz simple syrup (cane sugar)
dash of Angostura bitters
mix in an ice filled shaker. strain. serve up in a cocktail glass. garnish with a lime wedge.

This is a cocktail that is so good that whenever I share it, most bars pick it right up and add it to their list. Some magic

A Highly-Technical Mojito Scrutinize

A very good and admirable friend gave me a very good and admirable gift: a set of Tommy Bahama mojito glasses.

These glasses are chimney-style glasses, inches tall and 2 inches in diameter.

I prepared a mojito in the traditional manner: four sprigs of fresh mint, ounces of white rum, teaspoon sugar, juice of 1/2 lime along with their rinds, dropped into bottom of glass and thoroughly muddled. And let sit for five minutes for good measure.

Then, drop ice cubes on top of precious mojito juice. Then, fill with club soda. Garnish with another sprig.

Well. It was light and refreshing, as a mojito must be, but mayhaps a little too light. Due to the extreme narrowness of the glass, the precious mojito essence was not mixing properly with the club soda on top, blocked as it was by the ice.

So when the club soda part was done then it was time for over-intensified mojito essence, which, I must confess, I had to go at rather like a bear trying to get at the bottom of a honey jar. I was glad my wife and children

We&#;ll have a gay old time.

If you&#;re going to get grave about Tiki cocktails you necessitate , in my view anyway, an “anchor” dry gold rum. It doesn&#;t have to be the fanciest rum in the world but needs to simply perform as a base in cocktails that call for multiple rums that the other spirits can lock onto and still fully express themselves. While it doesn&#;t need to be anything costly it certainly has to be dry (not sweet), flexible and easily available. A very prolonged time ago I settled on Havana Club Añejo Especial as my anchor gold rum and haven&#;t had much cause to question that choice until recently. The reasons for re-thinking this being: 1: I&#;m a huge fan of several other Havana Club rums – 3 Años, 7 Años and Seleccion de Maestros – and I&#;m slightly concerned about coming over as a bit of an HC fanboy. This leads me to 2: If I&#;m really straightforward HC Añejo Especial isn&#;t nearly as good as those others and while I always depict it as a “rock reliable mixer” I&#;d certainly never think about sipping it on it&#;s retain. Which is a pity because, if I had, I might h
