Where to find Cruzan?
When did Meijer's stop carrying it? That used to be the only place I got it in Michigan -- it was cheapest there.
Secondly, your best bet is to go to your local liquor store where you frequently do business and ask them to carry it.
I am not sure about all the exact laws and statutes, but in another life several years ago, I worked with the Wine and Spirits Wholesalers Association, and I think it's illegal to ship spirits over state lines. I think that could be the problem with getting a place that has it to ship it to you.
As a sidenote, I had noticed orange missing lately but I didn't know it was because it was gone for good. That kills me.

Oh, P.S. Cruzan has switched hands a few times since I did this, but once I was looking for something specific and I couldn't find it and I just emailed them and asked them which stores in my area sold their products and they were able to provide me with a list. At a minimum, they should be able to refer you to the distributor for your area, who would then be able to tell you what stores they sell to.
I made some calls for you--BRY1105 wrote:North west of Milwaukee by about a half hour. Ive looked in grocery & liquor stores. No such luck.

Its my fiancee's favorite too.
This month's Bon Apetit magazine has a recipe for a rum punch made with Cruzan blackstrap. It looks really tasty.
Cruzan in all flavors is widely available around here. I am more excited about the fact that we can buy the Virgin Islands Brewing Company beers at my favorite local liquor store.

It's like looking in your soup and finding a whole different alphabet.

Hey XIslandGirl...we need a name for that drink! It sounds so good. Is it equal parts of everything?
Happy drinking!
