Rawns Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 So, back in March, the bro in law got me a bottle of Kraken black rum for my birthday. Unsurprisingly, as it was my birthday, half the bottle got drunk between us. I've cracked it out again tonight to have a bit over ice, but it's only the second time I've had it. While it's awesome neat, does anyone have any serving suggestions they'd recommend? I also feel it mandatory to say "Release the Kraken!"
witch Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 When I was in the West Indies, if we drank Black rum it was with lime juice or sprite. Oddly. Nice though 1
Rawns Posted March 23, 2013 Author Posted March 23, 2013 Freshly squeezed lime juice? Interesting, got some fresh limes in the fridge.
sippo Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 My favourite drink. Loads of ice. Pint glass. 2 parts rum, 1 part dr pepper. Seriously try it. Used to be a massive Captain Morgans Spiced drinker until the Kraken swallowed me up... 1
X-13 Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Loads of ice. Pint glass. 2 parts rum, 1 part dr pepper. I may have to give this a try. I have an unopened bottle of Captain Morgan's [spiced] indoors.
korifugi Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Coke (not cheap stuff though) makes it taste slightly of toffee... 1

sippo Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Coke is boring. I'd also recommend a black mojito... 1
plexer Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 I thought this was going to be about skiing as I read it as Kracken Black Run Ben
korifugi Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Also remember, when you've finished it - it's obligatory to stagger around the house stating loudly (in a slight slur) "where has all the rum gone?"... extra points for pirate wear.
X-13 Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 it's obligatory to stagger around the house stating loudly (in a slight slur) "where has all the rum gone?"... I do that anyway. extra points for pirate wear. Aye.
