Rum Swizzle
Dark rich sugar, equally dark and richly flavoured rum, sweetened and spiced with the clove and cinnamon flavours of falernum and freshened with citrus...

This is not very far away from a drink called a Freight Train Swizzle which adds a touch of Green Chartreuse and leaves out the lemon juice. Either way you can’t go wrong!

Bacardi 8 year worked well for this. Prominent rum flavor, but balanced out by the citrus/clove/brown sugar/bitters. Great easy-to-make rum drink.

Delicious - rum leads the flavor, and is underscored by the Demerara syrup. Falernum and bitters add depth of flavor, and the lime (softened by the lemon) give a citrus brightness.

Made this with diplomatico reserva exclusiva. Gorgeous! The garnishes really add to the whole experience. The drink is dark and sticky but smells fresh because of the mint/orange.

Added 45ML pineapple, for a easier sipping drink. Used my 12 YO rum but too much going on for it to shine, next time will use 6 year old :)

Made this with Mount Gay gold, cut the sugar syrup in half, added a float of 151 Demerara rum. It was wonderful.

Pleasant first use of Falernum and swizzling but a little on the mild side. Look forward to a Green Swizzle next time.
