A darkly sweet rum drink that calls to mind sailors and pirates, it's flavorful and fun. Mix in simple syrup made with coarse sugar (aka turbinado sugar or raw sugar) to accentuate the rum's molasses flavor. Arrrgh!
Add 2 ounces dark rum, ¾ ounce lime juice, ½ ounce coarse sugar simple syrup, and 1 ounce water to a martini shaker filled with ice and shake 20 to 30 seconds.
Pour into a lowball glass and enjoy. Yo-ho-ho!
Recipe Notes
Grog can also be served with hot water, sans ice. You can even use a tiki-mug if you’re feeling adventerous!
