It is that time of the year...when I start to get the "winter blahs" and I crave the rays of sunshine on a warm beach. Thank goodness it is Friday! And it's time for my "Friday Night Cocktail"!
Tonight I am making a Rum Madras Cocktail. A Madras Cocktail is traditionally made with vodka. But tonight I am making it with spiced rum to bring me back to memories from a tropical vacation that we took to Jamaica two years ago. The cranberry and orange juice taste so tropical together, with the rum and limes! It is time to enjoy this cocktail and watch Caribbean Life on the TV. I am dreaming of a warm getaway. Ahhhh...someday!! Cheers!
