An Old Dog learns something new.
#20

Hey guys, next time any of you are in my neighborhood let me know and I'll introduce you to a libation I brought back from my Habitat build in the Dominican Republic. The drink is called "Mamajuana". ( No, not related to the smokable variety!) The drink was a part of the native peoples before Columbus discovered the New World. It consists of a bottle crammed full of herbs, various tree barks, and spices. It was originally made with water, but the area soon became a major rum producer, and it didn't take long to hook the two up. You fill the bottle with rum and a touch of honey, then let it steep for at least a week. Best I can describe it is somewhere between Ouzo and Jagermeister. It has proven medicinal qualities also, so I'm told. The neatest feature about it is you never run out. After you drain the bottle, you just refill it and start over again. The medium will rejuvenate, and is good for five to seven years before it becomes "tapped out". Real body-warming stuff!! Take care, Gary
