I think a “dry rum” is a good idea for May, and I too would like to see ideas for a less sweet rum drink.

The sotol, I see a recipe that looks like a mint julep, just has it poured over muddled mint, agave, and ice, with sliced lemon. I am not convinced but would try it. But I also believe in my heart a margarita style drink works with damn near anything. Something sweet, something boozy, something sour. It lets the spirit shine through but enough softening from the citrus and liqueur to actually taste it comfortably. Also - try it with a splash of fresh pineapple juice. And you can make a post with request for ideas
