Andy has been put in charge of the bar for a work-related fundraiser this weekend. Thing is, the person in charge of the event has informed him he wants to use up a whack of white rum leftover from some event last year. I'm not sure what the dinner menu is, but I do know it's not going to be "themed" to go with white rum.
Any ideas for cocktails that wouldn't be too obnoxiously sweet?
Amy

I would do a warm rum drink to greet everyone coming in from the cold.

Hot buttered rum....I use a friend's recipe that combines softened butter and vanilla ice cream and the spices. You just spoon a dollop into the mug, add rum and hot water....I served it at the Lodge Club at Snowbird when I managed that place and it was a hige hit.

Hot Buttered Rum Mix
1 lb butter softened
1 lb brown sugar
1 lb powdered sugar
1 qt vanilla ice cream

Blend together until smooth and keep in freezer.

Pulled a couple of cocktaildb.com:

1/2 oz fresh lemon juice
1/4 oz dry vermouth
1/4 oz grenadine
Shake with icea and strain.
Rum Manhattan
1 1/2 oz light rum
1 oz sweet vermouth
1 dash orange bitters
Stir with ice & strain, add lemon twist.
Floridian Cocktail #2
1 oz gin

Long Island Iced Tea is another option, helps you use up a lot of things!

Nothing quite like a trio of Ho's and a bottle of rum to put you in the holiday spirit!
