So I was given a fifth of rum as a present. . .

[episodic]

Never drank rum before - what are the best things to make with it. . . .?

 

[krylon]

Adios Motherfucker

 

[sjwaste]

Is it good rum? Drink it on the rocks.

 

[aircooled]

If it's standard rum (bacardi, etc), just mix it with almost anything you like. Cola's, juice, etc. If it's premium rum, sip it straight on the rocks, or put it in the freezer and drink it ice cold.

Need me some Sailor Jerry's Rum. That stuff is absolutely delicious.

One of my co-workers brought me a bottle of Rum from the Dominican Republic that had some sticks or maybe sugar cane in it. That stuff would floor you in 5 shots.

Adding it to soda would cause the same reaction as adding a scoop of ice cream to root beer. Delicious, but it was very weird.

Anyways, drink rum straight and be a badass pirate or drink it with soda and be lame.

 

[eits]

this time of the year, you better mix it with apple cider

 

[TallBill]

Shots, shots, shots, shots, shots!

If I'm gonna use rum with a mixer, it'll be fruit juices, NEVER soda pop.

I have a couple of favorite recipes that use Malibu, a couple that use Malibu, Light rum, dark rum, Meyers rum, and 151...

BUT, here's a site with a couple of different recipes:

I only drink rum only if it is running down a hooker's body. Any other way is just unacceptable.

Why would you pollute GOOD rum in such a way.

Drinking it from the body of a virgin is the ONLY proper way.

EVERYONE knows this.

 

[Crusty]

What KIND of rum? That makes a huge difference.

You have lived much more than i sir, therefor i can accept your criticism. I am grateful.

 

[lokiju]

What kind of rum? That'll help determine how to drink it.

A good dark rum can just be had on the rocks IMO.

Clear rum like Bacardi is good for mixing with coke.

Captain Morgan spiced rum is good with Coke also.

I was going through Meijers the other day and I noticed that a half gallon of Bacardi Gold was $23. Damn, that's a lot of cheap buzzes.

If you like Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain.
If you're not into yoga, if you have half-a-brain.
If you like making love at midnight, in the dunes of the cape.
You're the love that I've looked for, come with me, and escape.
