I usually do the dark rum/aged rum combo, but right now I'm having a 100% Appleton V/X Mai-Tai.
Haven't had the V/X before, so I got a little sampler from the BevMo. Makes a damn good Mai-Tai for the price, and I wish I had just gone ahead and gotten a bottle.
Since they're about the same on the price break, let me hear ya'll's musings on whether the V/X or the Mt Gay Eclipse are better for the "everyday" Mai-Tai.
Next up, a 100% Pyrat XO Mai-Tai.

Not right now, but in an hour - Planter's Punch. Dad asked for a cocktail for Saturday lunch and we are overstocked with oranges and lemons. Almost running out of white rum, so we'll use the parents' Bacardi.

Picked up a bottle of Cruzan Single Barrel Estate Rum... I'll be sippin' it in about three hours from now.
Gave it a try and enjoyed it very much. Also sampled Bacardi 8 Year and really likdedthe full bodied flavor it presents. The Bacardi 8 Year was very good as a martini with a little Gran Marnier and Dark Creme de Cacao. Well... lunch is over and I'm back at "work".
