I had a taste for a citrus rum concoction the other day. I was, however, out of pineapple juice, and lemon lime soda, and even out of orange juice. I do, thankfully, keep the taste of the stars, the astronauts ambrosia, the nectar of NASA, TANG! So I popped the cork on a fresh bottle of 10 Cane Rum (top shelf in your favorite jar store) and dribbled a generous shot into a 10 oz glass and topped it with Tang. I little sip to awaken the tongue. Now that the flavor is fresh in my mouth, I deem this a good mix. What then do we call it? I muse to myself. We mixed the drink of American astronauts, Tang, with, as Capitan Thomas so gleefully noted, the drink of scoundrels and Pirates all, Rum.
I dub this lively, and nutritious, divination the…. Star Pirate! or Space Grog, whatever.
(technically grog is 3 parts water to two parts rum so you do the math)
Love Smiles and …. Oh ya!.. Rum!
–Please drink responsibly, and obey the laws of your locality.–
Captain Thomas says:
It is most definitely a good drink, this Star Pirate.
