This is an old Seattle party drink. It is rumored to have been originaly made with eight(!) different Rums, Amaretto and a Mason Jar by some of this cities best "mixologists". Legend says that it was mixed to appease a large group of people who were tired of drinking "rum and cokes" using only the ingrediants from a bar that was stocked almost entirely with rum. This drink is a great example of how similar ingrediants can be used to create drinks with entirely different tastes. Enjoy.
