Reviews
We loved these. We used a softer ice cream and they were thin shakes. Use the recommended super hard ice cream for a thicker result.
I did write a review and you didn’t post it. I guess you didn’t like it makes me wonder about all posted reviews. Just thinking
Very tasty. Must use the dark rum though. I made mine with Myers Jamaican dark rum and Breyers ice cream
