Improving Rhum
The basic recipe to improve Rhum by mixing it with bananas.
You need 1L of white rum (I prefer brown) and 4 bananas, cut the bananas (after removing the skin) in bits of 1cm. Put them in a frying pan with butter and sugar, and heat them (caramelization), and put them in the rum. Let the mix macerate for 2 months.

Another recipe use Carambar:
1L of Rum and 6 carambars. Put the carambar in the rum, add some brown sugar ( 20CL), let it for 8 to 10 days, shake the mix everyday.
