Instructions
The inventor of this drink liked to experiment with several other cocktails. Its origins are in northern Quebec, where a good fruity drink is always a treat. This drink is a personal favorite of several people.Combine Schnapps and Rum in a highball glass over ice and stir. Add Five-Alive, then rim glass with Sugar. NOTE: You DO rim the glass after mixing the drink. It is important to place a good amount of Sugar in a small Scotch glass or similar recipient. Mix the drink over ice, and dump into the Sugar. Next, use a spoon to eat the mixture. Your glass, of course, has been rimmed. After you've finished the "drink", lick the Sugar off the glass.
