8th April
2012

At a recent poker night, a friend brought over something new for a mixer.  Based on it’s appearance, I expect something sweet and fruity.  I was shocked by my first sip. Rather than a simple sweet juice, I was smashed with a wave of decadent spices: cloves, nutmeg, cinnamon, and some other bold flavors I couldn’t identify. It tasted like a cool mulled wine.  It tasted like a Christmas.

While it does scream scream celebration, it might be a bit much as a mixer for me.  I’m thinking that this Caribbean specialty might be great boiled down as a glaze for a ham.
