Boat Drinks (drinks/punch, not the song)

Post by botdrnk »

Heading to the beach in a few days and figured I'd throw out some feelers to see if any Parrotheads have recipes for good boat drinks/rum punches/etc that I can concoct for the beach and the pool. My days of Captain and Coke are over as I'm trying to fend off the cocktails with soft drink mixers.

Here are the ground rules:

no soft drink mixers
4 ingredient max (unless your recipe is super good)
easy-to-find-ingredients (no fruit of the vine only found in Trinidad, etc)

So whatcha got?

Cranberry, coconut rum, with a splash of lime.......I think we named it a Purta Rican Sunset or a dirty redhead......

Dark Rum, pineapple/orange juice with a touch of grenadine.......Sharkbite (Myer's Rum)

my drink of choice these days........Jumbie on the rocks with a generous sqeeze of lime :D

One more thing I left off....if you specify rum, please specify a brand. Different strokes for different folks. What's dark rum to one, might be amber or aged to another. If you specify Myers, or Cruzan Aged...it will help me a lot! Thanks!
