Norm Grohs, Regina Saskatchewan, Canada. S4N-0K1. This drink is Self discovered as far as I know. I have converted dozens of people away from Rye , Rum and Soda drinks. My original thoughts were I know there is absolutely no nutrition in Soda type mixers and this provides Vitamin C , Potasium and Iron which I suspect is infinitely healthier. I am dead serious about no hangover effects , and absolutely minimal aggressive spinoffs ( this would be a huge relief to bar owners if everyone converted) really. Any time I have a few too many of anything else I feel their adverse effects but this drink has never let me or any of my converts down. I have tried other alchohols with the Rio Red but Captain Morgan really proves to be the Finest RUM with this combination. LOW RAGE drink with ZERO HANGOVERS sound too good to be true, try it ! I am a 52 year old Telecommunications professional and have played guitar with several Rock Bands over the years opening for bands such as NAZARETH, APRIL WINE and HARLEQUIN in front of crowds as large as 10,000 and have a fair bit of Bar experience as a result. My nickname from playing was UNKY NORM but my nieces and nephews when very young used to struggle out with my name as UNCLE NUMB which was a true statement jokingly often enough when I was much younger. I would accept either name for my concoction. I have reearched other websites but don't find anything exactly the same as RIO RED is substantially better tasting than regular grapefruit juices or punches. A side note with any grapefruit juice is a caution for use with some high bloodpressure meds which should be checked for compatiblility with grapefruit juice from a compendium of Pharmaceuticals before using. I myself use DIOVAN WITH NO ILL EFFECTS and though there is a general medical opinion of incompatibility which once checked are often found to be overcautious. Another big plus is grapefruit jiuce works well as an appetite supressor and does help keep the weight down when compared with other mixers. Any product credits or donations would be greatfully accepted and insure a future of high quality RUM RESEARCH.Start with the ice cubes add the Spiced Rum and then add the Rio Red juice , some stirring is desirable. Any glass really is acceptable.
