Rating: NNNN
WHAT: Newfoundland Screech Dark Rum Rating: NNNN
WHERE: St. John’s, Newfoundland
WHY: If you’re looking for big, fruity, frosty, umbrella-compatible potions for Pride that will incidentally get you good and loaded, then look no further than tiki cocktails. For mai tais, lapus and zombies, you’ll need, amongst many other things, dark rum. Made in Jamaica and aged in Newfoundland, this is your best bet. When you drink tiki-style, you’re vaguely invoking Polynesia, a place that, before old whitey came along, was effortlessly LGBT-positive.
PRICE: 750 ml/$25.40
AVAILABILITY: At selected liquor stores (product #4622)
