Spa Index Kitchen Notes
Each serving is 1/2 cup.We did calculate a full 9 tablespoons of rum for these numbers, but do read our comment, below, for our tip on flavoring with rum, for only a scant number of calories.The rum accounts for about 49 calories per serving (193 calories for 6 tablespoons of 80 proof rum) for this recipe, so you'll save that amount by eliminating it, and, spritzing with just a light mist of rum, instead. That brings a scoop down to 123 calories (assuming you use reduced sugar substitute, as we did).
