Welcome to the lounge. Sunshine is solo at the bar this time. While the Ladies are off doing what they, Sunshine wanted to send out a podcast that answers a few questions. Top of mind has been a flurry of interest in what rum we prefer with our classic lime daiquiri. Pictured to right are some of (not all by any means) favorite spirits to enjoy in the quintessential drink. Plantation 3 Stars is a blended rum that offers a light sweetness and wonderful aroma. Barsol Pisco isn’t rum at all…;) which is why you should try it. This particular Pisco is classy like a brandy and takes our daiquiri on a journey to South America. Finally, we have an aged rum from SEATTLE…yes. Seattle. Sunshine came across this while on a trip to Washington and now keeps this wonderful rum behind the bar. Sun Rum amber is a good sipper and mixer. Listen to the podcast for all the tasting notes and details about these spirits.

Click any of the pictures below to visit the sites of each of these great spirits.

Also discussed on this episode: Why are drinks made at home not the same as your drink at the bar? Weight loss while drinking, Girl Scout cookies are here, reasons NOT to visit a “tiki bar” , salt free seasons that really taste good, and some Martin Denny on vinyl converted to Digital.

This year all of us in the lounge have been trying things to adjust our lifestyles, improve our health and live our best. Removing added salt from our diets is just one modification. These inexpensive salt free seasons from Target of all places are a slam dunk…and the Chipotle is the super star.
