Lemon Pomegranate Fizz

Light and refreshing and not too sweet – the perfect summer rum drink! Play with the ratio to make it just right for you. More pomegranate juice or lemon juice to increase the tartness, more lemon lime soda to increase the sweetness, or use diet lemon lime soda if you want to cut back on the calories! Ahhh…enjoy!

Rumaggedon

We enjoyed a week long sail through the Grenadines last year on the tall ship Diamant with Island Windjammers and in addition to the great itinerary (read about the trip here: Island Windjammer Cruise) we absolutely loved happy hour. Most evenings we were served up the scrumptious Rum Swizzles that the Diamant is famous for, but on the last evening aboard, they pulled out the stops and served up another excellent rum drink called the “Rumaggedon”. Even with some intense prying, o.k – maybe even a little whining,  our bartender Brandon would not divulge the yummy recipe. Imagine our surprise when we found that Island Windjammers posted the Rumaggedon recipe on their Facebook page today! I’m sure these are the tastiest when enjoyed during happy hour on board the Diamant or Sagitta, but maybe you can mix up a batch, close your eyes and start imagining your next sail!

Rum Margarita Recipes

Need a Margarita recipe using rum for Cinco de Mayo or National Margarita Day? Si, si – we did too, so we experimented a little and came up with these two. With the rum, the taste  resembles a daiquiri, but with not a lot of added sugar, it’s not as sweet and you get the nice margarita tartness. Mmmm – Salud!

Frozen Mojito Pie

Frozen Mojito Pie, my, oh, my… I was looking for a dessert to make for company this coming weekend with just the right summertime taste. I ran across a recipe for a Frozen Mojito Pie that seemed to require a bit of tweaking, but with a few changes it turned out just right – cool and refreshing and just a little tartness from the lime compliments the sweetness of the rest of the ingredients. Guess I’ll have to make another one for this weekend, ’cause I’m pretty sure this one will be gone by then…

Light & Minty Cran Rum

Like the taste of tart and tangy cranberry? If so, you might enjoy the taste of this easy, light and refreshing cocktail. No sugar added to this one, so it’s not an overly sweet combination. I love the addition of the mint which adds a bit of freshness to the mix.

If you like your cranberry a little sweeter, you might try our Cranberry Mojito recipe which adds a little brown sugar to tame the tang just a bit. Or, just add a drop of Stevia or a splash of a lemon lime soda!

This is one of our favorite recipes for a Bahama Mama – not too sweet, but a great tropical taste!
