Congratulations to [email protected] on the win for April, and to the closest challenger and most active participant BigGovernment[@lemmy.world.
For May, the challenge is a less sweet rum drink. Roll out the barrel, pirates!
The rules are even fewer than before, not requiring pictures since that’s not working for everyone but a picture may get you more votes.
The drink must be original (as far as you can tell with a quick online search). Can be wholly original or a variation on a standard. A complete recipe and your impressions - what does it taste like? Winner is the most upvoted, downvotes are discarded.
Winner of the May contest can have glory unending, and can pick the theme for July.
I got two suggestions from another site, including them here, not as entries but for anyone looking for a suggestion. The consensus on that cooking community was Barbancourt Haitian rum, on its own, is not sweet and is good enough to just sip. Their suggestions were:
Barbancourt rum with ginger juice and bitters.
Barbancourt martini with dry vermouth.
