Spanish Town Cocktail

We went to the Spanish Town Mardi Gras Parade in Baton Rouge today. The photo shows some of our "haul" we returned home with after braving rain and risque floats for two hours. And, thanks to good friends who hosted us.

Lo and behold, I found a 'Spanish Town Cocktail' on page 163 of the Bartender's Guide we've been using, for the most part.

 The recipe:

2 oz Rum (Bacardi Light)
1 teaspoon Triple Sec (LeRoux)

Stir with ice and strain into cocktail glass. I garnished with an orange slice.

The drink was good, not as good as last nights, but still quite drinkable. It was a drink that you sipped rather than gulping! It's worth having another.

I hope you enjoy a great Mardi Gras.

Cheers.
