3. Black Rum Cocktails

 

Bottle Suggestions

 

Goslings Black Seal - This Rum holds the patent for their Signature drink, the Dark & Stormy so technically you're breaking the law if your make it with a different bottle. Fortunately, it's pretty much the best option out there for black rums.

 

Plantation Original Dark Rum - Somehow this bottle comes in cheaper than goslings in Australia. I'm not sure how that works out but its a bargain and would be a worthy addition.

 

Let's get to it.

5 Food "Facts" You've Always Believed But Aren't True

  The five-second standard applies when you drop food. You drop a sweet on the floor, get it, dust it off, fly in your mouth, and gladly announce, "Five-second standard!" But, the five-second principle (and particularly the 10-second guideline) are foul legends: Germs can hook on to your unpredictable treats pretty darn quick. As per a Rutgers University study, microscopic organisms can move to fallen food in less than a second sometimes. The wetter the food, the quicker the microbes move happens, specialists found.
