The Pairing
Over Raging Tides by Jennifer Ellision
The Reasoning
From the ship’s articles of the Lady Luck:
Any woman in want of a life at sea shall be permitted to join the ship’s crew.
Another pirate fantasy! Recently I made my own take on Bumbo, a genuine historical cocktail beloved by pirates and commonfolk alike. This time around I wanted to keep a caribbean flavor (and of course, the rum) so I’m adding ginger beer to the mix. This results in a sort of piratey take on a moscow mule, but it’s tasty so I’m going with it. 🙂
The Recipe
You will need:
- Highball Glass or Copper Mug
- Ice
- 2 oz Spiced Rum
- 1 oz Black Rum
- 1 Lime (1 wedge, 1 oz juice)
- Ginger Beer (I prefer a strong ginger flavor, like Bundaberg or Cock n’ Bull)
Fill your glass/mug with ice. Measure out your rum, cut a wedge from the lime and place in glass. Squeeze 1 oz lime juice and add to glass. Top up with ginger beer and stir.
