So…..because this idea formed in my pea brain while I was concocting a fun little sugar scrub, we are going to go ahead and name this cocktail….you guessed it!–The Sugar Scrub.
Allrighty then.
You will need:
–2 oz. fresh squeezed and strained grapefruit juice
–1 oz. coconut-flavored rum
–1/2 oz. dark rum
–3/4 oz. simple syrup
–1 teaspoon rosewater
–granulated sugar for the rim (or sugar crystal sprinkles, like I used)
–grapefruit peel for garnish
Rim your glass with sugar or sprinkles, then fill it with ice. Mix all wet ingredients together well in a shaker, pour over your ice, then garnish with a bit of grapefruit peel. Enjoy your bathtub cocktail.
P.S. Don’t you love my adorable chicken napkins!? A sweet little gift from a friend (thanks, Susan!!)

Only in CA! YUM! Hope you are using Gosling’s Black Rum from Bermuda! Over the top good!
I have never heard of or had that! I will check it out–the Texan loves Appleton Estate (the 21 year aged one)–in fact, he’s gonna be ticked when he finds out I put some in a mixed cocktail! MUHAHAHAHA!
I am SO making this! Looks really great!
Rum and me don’t have a good history, but this, this makes me want to try really hard to be it’s friend again…..maybe just once!
I know just what you mean (more times than I care to mention)! And to be honest….? The coconut rum I used in this thing? It was like 150 proof or something–it burned a little. A lot. It burned a lot. Especially at 10:30 in the morning. Don’t use 150 proof rum. No bueno.
