Mixed Drink Monday: Throwback Week 8

We're at the halfway mark!  I've posted a lot of drinks so far and I have many more to post.  If you pay attention you probably notice the pictures getting better but also you may notice that I start using less and less wine and stick to mostly rum and tequila (which I never learned how to spell, even with all the times I've typed it).  This was a very helpful project for figuring out what I like!  And it isn't wine!
