And, in my reseach I have found the honey to play a surprisingly interesting role in the drink and my local markets have about eight kinds of honey from which to choose. And then, yes, the rums. Demerera is not the easiest find for everyone, but worth the quest. But, we are jumping ahead....... Tonight, for those of you playing along, your homework is grapefruit. Go to the market and get a grapefruit, a white flesh variety if you can find one. If white is not available, try to find pink, or as your last option a Ruby Red. You only need one because an average fruit will yeild eight or more ounces of juice.
