Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your dish.
- Don't overcook the shrimp. Shrimp cooks quickly, so it's important to cook it just until it's opaque and pink. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and chewy.
- Use a good quality rum. The rum will add flavor to the marinade and the grilled shrimp. Choose a rum that you enjoy drinking.
- Be generous with the marinade. The marinade will help to flavor the shrimp and keep it moist. Don't be afraid to use a lot of it.
- Let the shrimp marinate for at least 30 minutes. This will give the flavors time to penetrate the shrimp.
- Grill the shrimp over medium heat. This will help to prevent the shrimp from burning or overcooking.
- Serve the shrimp immediately. Grilled shrimp is best served hot off the grill.
