Fee's Falernum is basicly colored simple syrup, without too much spice to bring to the table. So the large portion of rum to sugar is, well, just boring. Cut the rum pours in half and try it, or better get a better falernum (or make your own), use a spicey ginger beer like Neyah Whitehttp://ohgroup.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-44370171633887520.post-5016492757275272472008-05-14T09:13:00.000-07:002008-05-14T09:13:00.000-07:00Craig- Well, it *is* pretty much a vodka Dark n' ...Craig- Well, it *is* pretty much a vodka Dark n' Stormy.
