Starfish Market has a good selection of all liquor. I don't think I have a favorite flavor...depends on what we're mixing up...I do like their Mango flavor we add it to our mojito's... :wink:

Mango's my favorite. I drink it straight over the rocks. Or I make Painkillers with it... gives them different slant! :D

A strong pour of Banana Rum over a short-pour of Pineapple Juice is soooooo good!

Or a strong pour of Banana Rum over a short-pour of Painkiller mix is a Banana-wacker and, again, makes me happy!

I bought all my liquor at Pine Peace last time. I think my favorite flavor is black cherry. It is great with diet coke, and it makes an AWESOME mojito.

But, really, I like them all except banana.

Raspberry in lemonade or strawberry daiquiris makes a nice pool-side beverage.

I'll go with the Black Cherry and diet also. Don't forget the Cruzan cream rum, it's great for mixing and also for a shot now & then.

After leaving the ferry, after picking up the car, we head for some groceries. The choice of Cruz Bay store drives the rum purchase. When in Coral Bay you can stop at Lily's Market for a good selection of rums.

I prefer Cruzan Black Strap and ginger beer. Rick is a philistine - he drinks Goslings rum in his Dark & Stormy beverage.
When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.

adsjayhawk - My pleasure! If there is any downside to the Black Cherry it's that some think it too sweet. In those cases I go half as much Black Cherry as usual and make up the difference with the Cruzan Aged Dark rum. You still get the cherry coke flavor but it's not as sweet.

RD My wife thought it was to sweet. Looks like I'm going to have to sample another night of Cruzan (with the Dark added). I wish I could zip down to Starfish and grab some Cruzan Dark, but I'm going to have to settle for the VA ABC store. :D
