Some rum recipes....

Just found this website...

http://cocktails.about.com/od/rumrecipes/Rum_Recipes.htm

And from it, I acquired this new recipe...
Black Stripe
Ingredients:
2 oz dark rum
1 tsp molasses or honey
hot water
lemon twist
cinnamon stick for garnish
Preparation:
Pour the dark rum and molasses or honey into an Irish coffee glass.
Twist a lemon twist over the glass and drop it into the glass.
Fill the glass with hot water.
Garnish with a cinnamon stick.

I'm totally drinking it.
Fabulous...

Think I'll try this one later....
Cafe Barbados
Cafè Barbados is very similar to a Cafè Caribbean, the main difference is that this one uses a coffee liqueur instead of amaretto. Using dark rum in a coffee cocktail as opposed to a lighter rum matches the robust flavors of a good strong coffee nicely. Personally I prefer using shaved chocolate as a garnish, it tastes better than powdered chocolate.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 oz dark rum
1/2 oz coffee liqueur
black coffee
whipped cream powdered chocolate or shaved chocolate for garnish
Preparation:
Pour the dark rum and coffee liqueur into an Irish coffee glass or coffee mug.
Fill with hot coffee.
Top with whipped cream Garnish with chocolate.
