Having never tried the pre mixed stuff I thought I should. So tonight I went down to my local BevMo and picked up the last bottle they had. I have to agree with MachTiki, it is a bit off.

However after shaking it with crushed ice it was improved a bit but it seemed weak and was lacking something. So I added some Saint James 15-year Hors D'Age Rum. Ah Ha! What an improvement. This was now quite tasty! Still not as good as the real thing but a very good substitution.

I think I'll have another.
