Hey Guys and Gals! A light rum infused with sliced ripe bananas, then sweetened with a sugar syrup.
Ingredients
2 ripe bananas, peeled and sliced
1 1/2 cups light rum
1/2 cup water, filtered or bottled
1/2 cup sugar
Directions
1. Place the banana slices in a sealable glass jar, add the rum, seal and shake. Steep 3 days at room temperature, away from direct sunlight.
2. Strain out the fruit, then filter through two layers of cheesecloth, pressing down to extract the liquid. Repeat to remove any debris that got through.
3. Heat the water and sugar in a pot on medium heat until it boils and forms a syrup, 7 to 10 minutes. Let cool.
4. Combine the syrup with the infusion, seal and shake. Rest at least one day. Keeps in the refrigerator for up to two months.
