Rhum arrangé: quand l'éleve dépasse le maitre....

One of the benefits of being unemployed is that you have plenty of time to learn new skills! So what better skill to learn than making the famous "Rhum Arrangés" !! Good stuff to have in the winter, especially when there's not snow on moutains and nothing else to do than staying home drinking booze :)

Yeah, we've all heard how tricky it is to make, how you really need the right ingredients, the proportions have to be perfect, etc etc... almost like black magic, jeeez this is scary just to think about making one.

So let's start making the famous litchis Rhum: first thing is to get the ingredients:

• 1 liter of Rhum from La Martinique!
• Vanilla
• Brown sugar
• Honey
• and..... litchis of course

(quantities not disclosed for obvious commercial non-disclosure reasons)

Second thing: getting an empty bottle, throwing all ingredients in there, shake it a bit, and............... the magic is taking place..........!!


Ok I disclose at least the site which discloses a little of the magic:
