im a huge fan of white russians and whiskey sours....and ofcourse, i like basic ones like vodka mixed with random juices and colas...but....
im looking for a good mixed drink to have with friends tonite...something easy to make (that doesnt use a blender or crazy ingredients not found in your local liquor store).
recipes would be nice!!! yes, i can go to any recipe website and look things up on my own but im looking for something someone has actually tried and recommends!

I have three recipes that all use rum.
¤The Mojito (my version)¤
What you need:
White Rum
Mint Leaves **EDIT** (did not read the part about the liquor store. For a substitute see if you can find a mint or peppermint schnapps. It won't be as good but it'll work)
Sprite/7-up, or Club Soda if you prefer
A Fresh Lime
A Highball Glass.
Ice
How to make it:
1. Put about 2 mint leaves and 3 to 4 slices of fresh lime in the glass.
2. Use a mortar or whatever to crush the lime and mint to get the the lime juice to merge with the essence of the mint leaves.
3. Add ice
4. Fill the glass 1/4 of the way with the white rum.
5. Top it off with the soda.
6. Stir it all up and enjoy.
¤Captain's Cream¤
What you Need:
White Rum (preferably Captain Morgan's)
Ginger Ale (preferably Schwepps)
Ice
Highball Glass
How to make:
1. Add Ice
2. Fill the glass 1/4 with white rum. (or more depending on how potent you want it.)
3. Top it off with ginger ale
4. Stir and enjoy. If done correctly, it tastes just like cream soda and you can barely taste the rum.
¤Jet Fuel¤
What you need:
151 proof rum (preferably Bacardi 151)
Sprite/7up
Ice (optional)
Highball Glass
How to make.
1. Add ice if you want to
2. Fill the glass half way with 151 rum
3. Top it off with soda
4. Stir and enjoy. It looks like jet fuel and is just as potent.

A "Rum Runner" which includes (usually) 80 proof rum in the drink but 151 proof rum poured into the straw so that your first sip isd 151 rum. Usually served on the beach. Not sure what the mix is.

Here's one: It's kind of like a Cape Cod- only better. Get some cranberry juice and instead of using regular vodka, use raspberry vodka. It delish!
