Sorry guys, just catching up on all this discussion. Very happy to see some action on this thread!

First, regarding the coconut milk, it's typically not too hard to find, at least down here in South Florida. Beachbum Berry recommends Thai Kitchen's organic brand, which I've tried and is very good. I can usually find something just as good and cheaper, though not organic, in one of the ethnic sections of our local Publix. Here's one I just picked up:

I'm sure there are comparable brands at other stores like Trader Joe's. Just beware of anything labled "light" as that might also cut out some of the fat and flavor. The can above has 90 calories and 9 grams of fat per 1/4-cup serving.

I've got to go you-know-where before happy hour ends, but I'll be back later to weigh in on the rum question.
