Rum Astrology - Gemini the Twins

               Gemini the Twins

                         May 21 - June 20

Curious, affectionate, intelligent and versatile are the keywords for the Gemini.  They tend to have a duality to their nature, and can sometimes be tough to predict how they will react. They can turn from hot to cold and may be prone to noticeable mood swings. Geminis are very supportive, and are one of the three air signs.  

The cocktail that best fits the Gemini sign is the Hot Buttered Rum. It is versatile in the respect that you can adjust the recipe to fit your own palate, and I highly encourage you to do just that.  It is the kind of drink that warms you up and makes you feel cozy.  

                      Hot Buttered Rum

In a coffee mug add:

  • 1 ½ oz. Rum, similar to Flor de Caña 7
  • 1 Tbsp. room temperature Butter Mixture

**Fill with hot water.  Stir this very well until the butter melts, and garnish with a cinnamon stick.  

**BUTTER MIXTURE**

  • 2 sticks of Softened Butter
  • ½ cup White Sugar
  • ½ cup Brown Sugar
  • 1 tsp Ground Cinnamon
  • ½ tsp Ground Nutmeg
  • ½ tsp Ground Allspice
  • ¼ tsp Ground Clove
  • Pinch of Salt

Mix this very well by hand, then refrigerate.  Remove from the refrigerator one hour prior to making your hot buttered rum. You can freeze this as well.
