I have discovered a drink so simple and fantastic I had to take a break from my Top Secret Project to share it. I don't know if it has common name, as I adapted it from a recipe called "Spiced Tea" on the Captain Morgan's website.
The ginger ale and iced tea together are nice but not all that special, yet somehow they combine to make the perfect platform to showcase the coffee and chocolate flavors in the rum. It doesn't sound right and it doesn't even smell right and as the first of the rum hits your tongue you'll think, "This is going to be gross," but then you swallow and that's when the magic happens. It's as if the ginger ale makes the rum buoyant and the lemon iced tea gives it a smooth, sweet base to ride on. Maybe that's just crazy talk, but I think if you try it you'll understand.
