...Barrel O' Rum by The Atomic Grog.

I agree, it is very good. Link to the recipe along with HH's narrative: http://www.slammie.com/atomicgrog/blog/2011/06/27/the-rum-barrel-the-rodney-dangerfield-of-tropical-drinks/#recipe

Also for anyone that has not been there, HH has done a fantastic job with all of the Mai Kai recipes, and continually updates them. He really deserves a huge thank you (thank you!) for his work: http://www.slammie.com/atomicgrog/blog/mai-kai-cocktail-guide/

Being in the same situation having a whole lot of grapefruit all at once from my own tree, I came up with a bit of a deconstructed Rum Barrel, easy, fast, and refreshing:

2 oz. white grapefruit juice
1/2 oz. passion fruit syrup
2 dashes Angostura bitters
1 oz. white Puerto Rican (I have been using Flor de Cana)
1 oz. dark Jamaican rum (I used Hamilton Jamaican Black Pot Still)

Combine in shaker with ice, shake and pour into rocks glass, garnish with fresh mint.
