Mount Gay Trident Cocktail Recipe |

The creator of the Mount Gay Trident is none other than author David Wondrich, who you may recall, wrote “Imbibe.” The book won the James Beard Foundation Award for Best Book About Wine and Spirits. And as author Gary Regan says, "Imbibe is the best book ever written on the subject of cocktails and mixed drinks. Plain and simple. Best Ever."
Here's what Mr. Wondrich has to say about the cocktail he has just created for the coming holiday season:
Neptune's trident holds the center of the Barbadian flag, as is fitting for an island with such a long and rich maritime history. For this dessert drink, I combined Mount Gay Eclipse rum, coffee liqueur and, instead of cream, sweetened condensed milk. It might be a bit sticky on its own, but it makes for a rich, creamy and utterly irresistible cocktail (note: only use a brand that contains nothing more than milk and sugar).
When it comes to drinks suitable for holiday sipping, we think you’ll find that this cocktail is simply delicious!
