Just drank too many in Key West on vacation last week, it's rum and Ginger Beer. Very nice. The ones they make down there use a rum called Goslings Dark Rum that I have not seen up here in Wisconsin, but I am going to go hunting. Goslings also makes a great Ginger Beer.

On Persephone, we used to routinely toast with Prosecco (as my sailing partner is Italian) and Stella Artois (as my mother is Belgian) but in the last year, we've shifted to San Pelligrino and H2O since I've decided alcoholic beverages were not wise for me or for my partners (in excess). For some folks like me, shoving off without the booze is just a much better idea, regardless of Uncle Sam.

Mount Gay for the obligatory toast to Neptune at the beginning of each voyage, tequila for the sunrises during afternoon cocktail hour (and possibly with breakfast as well), Bud (all my beer-drinking sailor friends like it), water, coke (regular and diet). We've also been known to have vodka on cruises for the bloody marys and screwdrivers. Nothing very fancy.... Cheers!

Of course that led to day dreaming about cocktails on the boat. <snip>
