[Sca-cooks] SPICED RUM!?!

[Carper, Rachel]

I find spiced rum scratchy on my sore thoart. I prefer just regular
dark. But my mother owned a newspaper when I was growing up and the
Puser's Rum company kept us in supply of rum as an advertising gimmic.
(It was the only rum good enough for the employees yadda  yadda yadda.)
I usually go with brandy when I'm sick. Or whiskey when I'm really sick.

Poor Daniel, putting up with rum barbarians! <g>
I'm not actually a huge rum fan, myself, although I did get a small 
tasted of some very lovely (imported) stuff in January.  Not even 
available in my entire state, darnitall!
Some folks like to put the spiced rums in hot drinks, which is what 
prompted my question--I like hot, soothing things when I'm sick like 
Lainie is, so I thought she might as well.
Now, tempt me with a really good vodka, or some Irish whiskey, and we 
might have to talk! ;o)

first Pelican meeting....
