I've done many a Cruzan party, and the best thing I've had is too simple.....same as cypressgirl, cruzan raspberry rum and cranberry juice, not sweet, just a little tart.

A riff on the cranberry juice drinks is the one I've posted here before, easy to make in large quantities, over ice:

>>1/3 Cruzan citrus flav rum
>>1/3 Ting (slighty carbonated, slightly sweet Jamacian grapefruit softdrink easy to find in the USVI that is vaguely a little like Fresca)
>>1/3 cranberry juice
>>squeeze/drop in quarter lime

Here at home, Ting is a little hard to find - have substituted Newmans Pink Lemonade or Newmans Light Lemonade and likewise light Cranberry juice to save a few calories...

Waterguy........I'm a mature woman now. I'll never tell. I think we actually won a disco contest that night at a local Houston hangout for the terminally drunk. I don't remember the rest of the night and if my daughter reads this I'm toast.

Here's one we call Hop, Skip and Go Naked:

One can frozen concentrate lemonade
One 12oz can of beer
6-12 oz vodka

Throw some ice in the blender until full and blend.

It's an easy drink to make and even easier to drink!

Crystal light lemonade
Crystal light tea

You guys can't compete w/ the Tang & Orange Rum ... sorry :)

Another fav is the ice cream (I don't give a damn if its $8/1/2 gallon) a whole banana and coconut rum milkshake!

wontongirl, how many refill bags do you have? Think we're gonna have Ballwasher I-X. Maybe that is the key to pacing ourselves---change the drink. Keep it fresh and our tastebuds unsuspecting!

Key lime pie martinis are my favorite, but my recipe is a little different.

I think that we MUST come up with and official "Ballwasher" so we can put it in the forum cookbook! The recipe and story of how it came to be; now that would make an interesting story.................... :wink: :wink:
