Beach Cleanup~Pirate style

I am preparing to rent the house for the Beach Cleanup Weekend and as such I need a confirmed headcount to be sure we have a place big enough for all of us. There is limited parking available at the houses so if you have space or need a ride, be sure to speak up so that we can coordinate to get all folks to the beach who wish to go.

When: March 28th 2009, 10am – 1pm

Where: Either Fogarty Creek or Gleneden Beach

Quicksilver's Original Apple Pie recipe

This formula is mostly rough and thoroughly approximate, and I’ve made a lot of friends on account of it.

The best part is, if you like to fool around a bit with what you put in it, then you can come up with something that’s truly your own. And yes, it gets better with age (keep it refrigerated).

First off, you need a 3 Gallon jug, bucket or barrel (I call mine the “mother of all jugs” -- I reckon you can find a relative, or have me make you one, a fine idea!). If you can’t locate one, then you need to find some helpful soul to do the math and figure out the smaller proportions for a smaller container.

Next, start pouring stuff in:

* One fifth (that’s 750 ml for you metric types) of Myers
Original Dark Rum (the one from Jamaica, mon).

* One fifth Captain Morgan’s Spiced Rum (yes, that bottle with
the jolly pirate on the label). Barbarosa Rum is okay, too.

* One fifth Bacardi Dark Rum (or light, if you’d rather). You
can use 151 proof if you really want to go over the edge.
{ Caution : Flammable! }

To make the magic, add the spices. I use about a teaspoon each of Cinnamon, Cloves (ground), and Allspice. Some folks like to add nutmeg. Dump in a few cinnamon sticks, to sit there and mellow. Just like you will when you start drinking this brew......

Now fill up the jug with about 1 ½ gallons of apple cider or apple juice, it doesn’t matter which. Shake it up.

CHEERS !!
