"Drinking rum before 10 a.m. makes you a pirate, not an alcoholic." -Earl Dibbles Jr.

Ahoy, Matey

Pirates and rum go together like spaghetti and marinara, or peanut butter & chocolate, or Abbott & Costello. And rum is all about the Caribbean. And beach drinks. And joy. And sunshine. 

Here's some we've sampled that we enjoyed, or not. Do you agree with the rankings?

​Flavored

• Malibu Caribbean Rum with Coconut Liqueur ⋆⋆⋆ ​

Spiced Rum​

• Sailor Jerry Spiced Rum ⋆⋆⋆
  • ​Named after Norman "Sailor Jerry" Collins, tattoo master during WWII, this spiced rum is pretty easy on the palate. It did have a very "solvent" smell by itself, but when we mixed in our Jerry Loves Ginger drinks, it was delightful.

• Bacardi Superior ⋆⋆⋆
