Rum is horrible... For some reason the taste makes me sick, always has.
Same here. When I was younger, my parents were always rum 'n coke drinkers and they never had to worry about me or my brothers stealing their booze because we all disliked rum. I don't mind it with eggnog at Christmas, but thats about it.
Actually, I find all alcoholic drinks with coke or pepsi to be gross. I don't know how anybody can consume mixed drinks with cola in all night long. That much syrup would make me sick. That's why my drink of choice was always rye 'n ginger. I guess there is syrup in ginger ale too, but at least you can't taste it and feel it rotting in your gut the way you do with coke or pepsi
