I just realized that its tartness was reminiscent of the Fog Cutter.<br /><br />Yeah, my only qualm is that 2.5oz rum is a lot for a drink that's not rum forward... then again... I can stop complaining and just make half of one next time :)DJ HawaiianShirthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00282879189919576765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8207785705250955725.post-52088141097511336502013-02-18T21:00:01.295-08:002013-02-18T21:00:01.295-08:00Very glad you tried this.

The tiny grocery where I do most of my food shopping only stocks easygoing pink types (surely in the interest of space). But had I bought a white one in the first place, it might have ended up a completely different drink. ;-)Rowenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15835972705727030948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8207785705250955725.post-1564417441286077592013-02-18T16:33:40.351-08:002013-02-18T16:33:40.351-08:00I just made this thing.

You can always count on me, right?<br /><br />I had to sub the white cacao with Trader Vic's dark cacao and the gold rum with a mix of light and dark (sorry). In the end, it was actually a bit tart for me... I had to add a dash of syrup.<br /><br />Very interesting... the grapefruit dominates, with the cacao poking through, the combo giving an almost peppery note. The lime and rum, for me, disappeared, and this ended up being a battle between the grapefruit and cacao, but not in a bad way. Not my cup of tea, but very interesting.DJ HawaiianShirthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00282879189919576765noreply@blogger.com
