While you're frying up some eggs and bacon, we're cooking up something else: a way to celebrate today's food holiday and the most delicious finds on TV. If you like piña coladas, August 16 is certainly a day worth breaking out the Tiki mugs for. It's National Rum Day - just another manic rum day, one might say. The liquor, distilled from fermented sugar cane products like molasses, is certainly a global commodity, but its spirit remains synonymous to the Caribbean. Whether you opt for the light, dark, gold or spiced variety, time flies when you're having rum. What's on TV? "Unwrapped" - Food Network, 8:30 p.m. ET "The Best Thing I Ever Ate" - Food Network, 9 p.m. ET "Extreme Food Sculptors" - TLC, 10 p.m. ET "Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations" - Travel Channel, 10 p.m. ET Manic for Mojitos? Devoted to daiquiris? Spill your favorite rum libation (and, if you got it, a recipe) in the comments. |
