Ice Cream martini from L’Artisan de Glaces in the France pavilion EPCOT Two scoops of ice cream with either a shot of Grand Mariner, Rhum Clement VSOP, or Vodka. Rhum Clement is Rhum Agricole from the French speaking island of Martinique. Rhum Agricoles are made from sugar cane, unlike most rums that are made from molasses, which is the waste product from sugar production. THE MORE YOU KNOW! I subbed Rhum Barbancourt 5 star which is an excellent Rhum Agricole aged 8 years, from Haiti, also a French speaking island. I also opted for whipped cream on top
