Captain's Blood image

The Captain's Blood is similar to a daiquiri, except that it's made with dark rum instead of white and a small but essential measure of falernum (a syrup flavored with spices, often nuts, sometimes lime, sometimes alcoholic and sometimes not, often used in Caribbean rum drinks). I prefer my Captain's Blood on the tart side, but you can adjust the amount of sugar to make it as sweet or as sharp as you like.
