Used Mount Gay Eclipse and Appleton VX. Was planning to try this drink with an Appleton 12 float but I haven't replenished my stock of that yet and wanted to give it a shot already. The bum calls for 3 oz of ice in a blender so I assume it's supposed to be a slushy type of drink. The big blender was dirty so I used the top down mixer instead which certainly didn't bring the drink to the intended consistency. Still, when I took a sip out of the mixing cup it was tasty. Poured it in a glass and topped with the Appleton float. Wasn't bad. Maybe the A12 will kick it into overdrive. Overall just too much ice for my liking, especially following the recommended sipping technique, rather than using a straw. But I suppose if I used a proper blender that issue would be resolved. Anyone else ever do this one at home? What's your take?
