I checked last night and saved several recipes (all slightly
different) that appealed to me and I'll make up my mind later. All I
know now is that I'm definitely going to use a carton of the mixed

have no strong dislike for anything in the bunch, so the only thing
I'll do is macerate it with rum for a while.
