If they don't sound that good to you, and even if you don't like Rum, try these. I've been threatened with being fired if I don't bring these to every department picnic and christmas party from now 'til the end of time, even by folks who claim to hate Rum. Instant winner at picnics, and great for dinner parties, too.
