After one sip, you’ll be in search of an old blue chair.

Today’s Boat Drink recipe comes to us from Castaway Mixologist Jeremy McDaniel, it’s called the Island Boy and is made with Chesney’s Blue Chair Bay Rum. Basically I think it’s a call for help from the harsh winter that Jeremy and many of you have experienced. Here’s what he had to say about this week’s rum recipe.

It’s been a while! I blame it on this terrible winter, it’s ALMOST crushing my Caribbean soul! Well I’m ready to rum it up again (screw you old man winter!). The inspiration for this one comes from Kenny’s “Island Boy”, especially the lines, “Watches the snow on CNN, with all his dope smokin’ friend, just look at the hell they must be in”. Enjoy and here’s to snow melting!

It sounds like someone is in need of a little time in the lower latitudes. Stay warm Jeremy, cause the only thing that melts down here is the ice in my rum punch!
