Im looking forward to making this as its my favourite cocktail. Ive got everything in I need, the only thing is that it does not state how much Havana Rum to add, I don't want to add too much as this may spoil the lovely flavour of the drink. I thought maybe it needs 1 shot (that being 25ml.) Can anyone help!x
