Cabancalan Cooler

Firstly, sorry about the lousy photo. I'm no photographer by any means.

Anyway, this is a cooling rum drink that I invented. It's absolutely perfect (in moderation) on hot, tropical afternoons. It's a bit sweet and slightly sour.

Ingredients:

Tanduay Dark or 5 Year Old Rhum, or any other darker or golden rum

Mixed orange and mango juices (I use 8 O'Clock brand juice powdered mix)

1/2 calamansi or a small lime wedge

Ice

Instructions:

Pour two fingers' worth of rum into a tall tumbler

Squeeze the calamansi or lime into the rum to get the juice, then discard

Add fruit juice until the glass is about 2/3 full. Stir.

Add ice cubes and stir again.

Enjoy!


N.B. I named this after the barangay in which I live.
