To each his own friend,but: I would do away
with the sugar & water increase the OJ to 1qt and use only 151 rum and let the bodies fall where
they may,and hope they can still hold up a pinky finger. :rotf:

Rum has long been known as a deadly drink. Kenneth Roberts, who wrote "Northwest Passage" among other things, wrote a lot about colonial America. In one book he warned that when drinking hot buttered rum you should push your bench back far enough from the fire so that when (not if) you fell off you wouldn't land in the fire. Take a coffee mug, put in a generous dollop of dark, high proof rum, two cloves, a pat of butter fill it up with boiling cider and stir with a cinnamon stick. Stay back from the fire. graybeard
