One of the original Don the Beachcomber drinks, it remains popular for a reason. This is one of my personal favorites at my local tiki bar that I always come back to even when tempted with more \u201cexotic\u201d treats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Incidentally, there is not a single agreed upon \u201ccorrect\u201d Navy Grog \u2014 all recipes for this cocktail feature three types of rum, citrus, and sweetener, but some call for honey, some for sugar, some club soda, some the addition of spices.\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/wiki.webtender.com\/wiki\/Navy_Grog\">The Webtender Wiki<\/a>\u00a0has both Don\u2019s original recipe and Trader Vic\u2019s recipe, if you\u2019re interested in trying those. My personal version, which follows, is a little different; I don\u2019t actually like grapefruit juice, and I like the idea of just using lime to hearken back to the \u201coriginal original\u201d grog of the 18th century:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>1 oz light rum<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 oz dark rum<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 oz gold rum<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Juice of one lime<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2 tablespoons honey mixed with 2 tablespoons of water (makes it blend better)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ice \u2014 about a cup and a half.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>My blender has the perfect tiki drink setting, \u201cice crush,\u201d which crushes the ice, blends the ingredients, and aerates the drink. Not as good as a top-down blender, but it works nicely for my purposes. Place all ingredients in blender and either pulse or use a similar ice crushing setting until ice is broken up. You do not want a slushy. Pour into elegant glasses, garnish with a lime wedge. I let mine sit until the outside of the glass has completely frosted over, stirring occasionally, before drinking.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Navy Grog is a simple and delicious classic cocktail combining multiple rums, crushed ice, citrus juice, and a hint of sweetness&#8230;<br \/>\n<a class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.brentblack.com\/cart\/2012\/10\/19\/rum-drink-of-the-week-navy-grog\/\">Read More \u00bb<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-915671","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Rum Drink of the Week: Navy Grog - Brent Black Panama Hats<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"noindex, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Rum Drink of the Week: Navy Grog - Brent Black Panama Hats\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The Navy Grog is a simple and delicious classic cocktail combining multiple rums, crushed ice, citrus juice, and a hint of sweetness...
