The idea of a refreshing
cooler in the heat of summer is a;ways a good idea. Here is a way to
include fresh grapefruit with Mount Gay Black Barrel Rum and have a cocktail
that will quench you thirst during these hot summer days. Mount Gay's
Black Barrel Rum and grapefruit work so well together and with the addition of
Luxardo Maraschino Liqueur to lighten the flavor, you have a real winner.
Give this one a try, if you want a little less sweetness fool around with the amount of agave nectar to sweeten to your personal liking.
