Bolero
This dark rum & brandy version of the BOLERO is fruity, yet complex. The proportions in the mix largely depends on your taste for dark rum (I prefer Myers’s Dark). My favored mix emphasizes the dark rum, but still has...
H2P Shot
The H2P SHOT is a toss-back layered shot drink. Just as tequila shots go down nicely with lime & salt, the H2P shot benefits by the sweet-bitter orange flavoring of Blue Curacao to smooth the rum. The layering effect is...
