Morgan's Rum?

dandy-candy

I have been clearing out mums house and came across 2 unopened bottles of Captain Morgans Rum. I couldn't throw them away but i'm not much of a drinker and don't know anyone who drinks dark rum (as opposed to Barcardi) Does anyone know what you can make with rum? I looked on Morgans website for ideas but it's rubbish! I was thinking of using some for fruitcake - is that usually dark rum? Any other recipes/suggestions?

I like soaking raisins in rum to mix through a broken biscuit chocolate cake (fridge cake some people call it), adds a ream yum factor

Hi

Bay rum doesn't smell of alcohol. More herbal due to the bay leaves.

Rum butter instead of brandy butter for Xmas pud. Also rum sauce. In fact any alcohol related Xmas cooking you can use rum instead of brandy/sherry/etc.

I love rum.

What about trying a rum based cocktail or two?
