Smoky Apple

Welcome to flavor country. A nice drink that really brings out the greatness of Smith & Cross rum. Ideally, I want to get a smoking gun, so i can then smoke this drink for smokey leaves burning fall flavor :-) But until then, here's the drink...

1 1/2 ounces Smith & Cross Rum
2 1/2 ounces apple cider (or a good unfiltered apple juice)
1/2 ounce cinnamon syrup

Build over rocks in old fashioned glass. ENJOY!

Dark and Stormy (Rum Mule)

Note this isn't a "Dark N' Stormy" it's a Dark AND Stormy, because i don't use goslings, or ginger beer for that matter! I will say that this drink is far superior. In my opinion, the perfect Rum Mule.

1 1/2 ounce Ron Zacapa 23 year
3/4 ounce smith and cross
1 ounce lime juice
1 ounce ginger syrup (sometimes i add a little extra dash because it's the best)
3 ounces sodea

Fill with ice, top with soda.

See my post on Ginger Syrup to see how to make THAT. If you click the ginger syrup tag, it should show up (along with other great recipes that include ginger syrup)
