This Booze Squib conjures up memories of T.S. Eliot and The Allman Brothers. If you know why, you’re the kind of reader I love.
Just in time for spring and summer, Cruzan is shipping a new flavored rum – Peach.
To celebrate the occasion, the distiller pitted some recipes perfectly appointed for Peach. I’ll knock it off with the P alliteration and get right down to the booze business:
