You've got an excellent point there. Thanks for the good advice. I did find this recipe on a story extolling India's Old Monk rum which I've never tried, but want to: Muddled Monk Dark rum: 45 ml Orange liqueur: 15 ml Fresh sweet lime: 6 wedges Fresh lime juice: 10 ml In an old-fashioned glass, muddle the sweet lime chunks and pour in the rest of the ingredients. Top with crushed ice and garnish with a twist of sweet lime peel. http://travel.cnn.com/mumbai/drink/old-monk-mixes-864327 I might start with this one, looks simple but interesting.
