As for non-rum based drinks, I'd go for something with a vodka or tequila base because you can always sub bourbon for rum if that is more someone's style. Pinky Gonzales is popular at Adrift in Denver. Just my opinion, YMMV. gabbahey On the subject of tequila, I've gotten a good response from most of my friends (the ones who actually like cocktails anyway) with the Yellow Boxer. The only thing that'd stop me from recomending it is the fact that it uses Galliano, and that stuff is pretty much out of reach if you're on a strict budget.
