First off....let me make it perfectly clear, I am not a connoisseur of all the individual ingredients as most of your are. Rum drinks are not my favorites as they typically give me a headache, but I do like and appreciate a well made rum drink. Mostly my goal is to make good drinks that my party guests will like. So far, I have done OK with my Mai Tais (just a little adjusted from the Grog Log).

I have a party coming up and want to make Navy Grog, but will need to do some substitutions, so appreciate your help. I have the following substitutions, but not sure about the Demerara?

~Lime Juice = I use Nelly & Joe's Famous Key West Lime Juice
~Grapefruit Juice = I will get a good name brand
~Honey = will use what I have (it is a new bottle)
~Light Puerto Rican Rum = will probably use Cruzan
~Dark Jamaican Rum = will probably use Meyers
~Demerara Rum = [what would be a good substitute?]
~Club Soda = I usually buy Schweppes
