Rice pudding be an old and favorite thing. For the Raiders Of The Lost Pantry Recipe Contest I've added Caribbean flavors sure to please any pirate. I see no reason why some of the water couldn't be replaced with a splash of Capt'n Morgan's best but that be up to ye matey! The recipe, as written, do be fit for the family. I've used lime and coconut in part and yes that infamous song do be stuck in me head, Arrrrrrr. The prep time be only soaking the rice on yer galley counter.
