    Source of Recipe


    catgurrl

    List of Ingredients




    1 bunch fresh mint (about 1-1/2 cups sprigs)
    3 cups Bacardi Limon rum
    2 cups sugar
    2 cups fresh lime juice
    1/4 cup cherry liqueur (such as Maraska Maraschino or other high-quality, clear cherry liqueur)
    3 cups pitted fresh cherries
    2 (10-ounce) bottles club soda
    Loads of ice!
    Fresh mint sprigs
    Fresh cherries on the stem

    Recipe



    In a non-corrosive container, such as a large glass pitcher, combine the mint, rum, sugar, lime juice, liqueur and pitted fresh cherries. Stir well to dissolve sugar. Cover and refrigerate overnight.


    For each serving: Fill a large rocks glass or tumbler with ice, and measure in 6 ounces (3/4 cup) of the rum mixture, being sure to get some of the cherries into each glass. Top with 2 ounces (1/4 cup) of soda water. Stir, then garnish with a mint sprig and a cherry.

    Makes about 10 servings.

    NOTE: The cherry-rum mixture can be made up to 3 days in advance and kept refrigerated -- the flavors will just get better and better.
