It's that time of year, again!  On September 19th, it's official "Talk like a Pirate Day"!  Run up the skull and crossbones and let everyone know your true, inner-pirate!

 Yarr!

Signed, your peg-legged scurvy admin, ~Gnobrin!

Avast!  Talk like a pirate day is 'ready upon me, maties.  Livin' as I do in tha middle of tha blue Pacific.  I'm wedded to tha scruviest dog tha ever did sail them seas, Davy Jones did be sayin' so himself when he dubbed him no longer polly wog, but now he be a trusty shell back.  Arr!!  I'm goin' ta go now and brew up some grog in tha galley.

You all be wantin' any?

1 ounce Light Rum, 1 ounce Dark Jamaican Rum, 1 ounce Barbados Golden Rum (or use more Dark Rum Arrr!), 1/2 ounce Fresh Lime Juice, 1/2 ounce Passion Fruit or Guava Nectar, 1/2 ounce Pineapple Juice, 1/2 ounce Orange Juice, 1/2 ounce Orgaet Syrup (or substitue Almond Liqueur), 1 cup Crushed Ice.

  • Mix in a blender until smooth.
  • Serve with fresh speared fruit or mint for garnish, if desired.
  • ((The polly wog/shellback referance is a real thing they still do in the Navy.  If you have never crossed the Equator on a ship you are a polly wog.  When you do, they have a Crossing of the Line ceremony and the fresh faced Wogs are promoted to Shellback after a day of drills and silly hazing by the ship's captain dressed as King Neptune, an officer as Davy Jones and another as Queen Aphrodite.  Hubby brought home pictures from his.  Crazy stuff.))
