I could go into how rum MADE America but I am a little too buzzed to get into it right now. However, rum was definitely THE drink back in colonial times. The biggest industry in New England was distilling rum. End of history lesson.

No rum for me today (gotta work later), but you are making me think of how good a Mai Tai would taste!

My mother (now in her 80’s) told me that when she was a teenager her mother forbade her from playing this song in their house.

Late 60s... along with pot, rum & coke was the drink of choice for the MIT crowd at Cape Cod.

Well, a Cuba Libre was the drink of choice among my small group. We’d get together, make a gallon cooler of it (including the limes), then spend the day on a pontoon boat.
But today I’ll toast you shortly with my weekend 2 fingers of Woodford Reserve.
BTW, you’ve delved into my type of music (at least genre & era)...

Gotta be honest ... am way disappointed with Captain Morgan Tattoo. I think that should be marketed to college chicks with no taste.
