I filled a large thermos and simply shook it up before serving over ice and the recommended additional nutmeg. I was concerned it wouldn't travel well but should haven't been. Made this to bring to a holiday party and it was perfection. I think this is a new Christmas tradition. Made it over the weekend and will make it again for Christmas tomorrow. gritty with the nutmeg and the lime zest but straining as directed will resolve that issue. We made the decision not to strain before serving and that was a shotcut we shouldn't have taken.

It was a big hit! It's reminiscent of egg nog but it's a different flavor profile. Made this for my boyfriend's Panamanian family, since it's also common in Panama. I didn't have evaporated milk on hand, but with fresh 3.5% this still turned out great! She always thinned hers with Fanta Orange, when it was thinned (seldom). Similar to the recipe I got from a Trini lady one Christmas, written on the back of a piece of wrapping paper, but she stated that overproof rum was the only type of you I should use. We're having to restrain ourselves from gulping these down too fast! Definitely a keeper.

Kind of reminds me of one of our favorite NOLA drinks.the Ramos Gin Fizz at the Roosevelt Hotel.only this one has punchy lime notes, instead of the orange and rosewater.but to similar effect. Mixed everything up in my food processor (except the rum, so it wouldn't overflow/leak), didn't bother straining, poured into a pitcher and then added the rum (bumped up to two cups.cause hey, why not.it's Christmas!). Excellent! Perfect for a Christmas morning boozy brunch.we are just loving this.
