MMMM.....there are so many choices. Curzan Vanilla and Coke is always a favorite. I recently came across Curzan Strawberry in SC and it mixed wonderfully with lemonade. Also, Cheerwine, Curzan Vanilla and a lime wedge is good! My husband likes Curzan Raspberry and coke.....and Curzan Coconut with anything. Yes we keep Curzan in business!!

I'm a fan of Brugal rum,Pepsi with a twist of lime.
AKA as a Cuba Libre....
Brugal is a very good "earthy" rum...
Flor de Cana is also a favorite on the rocks

Many great rums on the market...

Ok - someone posted the below, I saved it, but didn't save who posted it. So first - Thank You!! Our variation is below (used what we had on hand) and it is kick butt!!
Well we came up with a variation of a frappuccino and a bushwacker. We never finish a pot of coffee so I thought I would use the leftover to make a drink. It turned out pretty good....a bushwacker with a caffeine buzz!

3 parts coffee
2 parts Baileys
1 part Cruzan Rum
1 part vodka
1 part coconut cream
1 pack of Splenda

Mix with ice in blender!
Our Variation:

1 cup coffee
1/3 cup each baileys, vodka, coconut rum
2 cups vanilla/choc swirl ice cream
2 bananas
1/4 cup organic, unbleached sugar
Ice
Blend well

If you can handle the taste of liquor, you can omit the 1/4 cup of sugar. :wink:
