National Rum Day Recipes courtesy of Captain Morgan

It comes as no secret that we are lovers of Rum here at The Supreme Plate. So much so that when our favorite holiday, “National Rum Day” rolls around we shut down and have ourselves a much needed party. Seeing as how that great day happens to occur on a Friday this year, we figured lets get to putting up some recipes in advance so everyone and their mama can have a chance to enjoy the greatest liquor to have ever been created, Rum. The good folks over at Owl’s Brew created a few incredible recipes for Captain Morgan and sent them our way, so in turn we place them in front of you.

Remember with everyone running around yelling “Turn Up” take a moment and relax with some good friends and enjoy your libations responsibly, just because you want to look like a fool doesn't mean the rest of us should have to suffer for it.

Happy National Rum Day!!
