Vernon's Grog Cocktail
Mixed Drink Recipe from Cocktail Builder
2 oz of Dark rum
8 oz of water
1 tbsp of Lemon Juice
1 tsp of demera or muscovado sugar (or Vanilla Sugar)
Pour the rum into the container of your choice. A mug is suggested if a hot beverage is desired, but a glass works for a cool drink. Real Jamaican rum has the strong flavor that's desired for grog. Add sugar. Brown sugar can work as a substitute; white sugar is too flavorless to work well. Add a good tablespoon of lemon juice. Add cool or boiling water, depending on choice. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.\r
For extra flavor, cinnamon, in the form of a stick or powder, can be added. One stick or a pinch of powdered cinnamon is sufficient.
