This recipe features the delicate flavor of citrus, imparted by just a hint of orange and lemon zest. Likewise, a small amount of warm vanilla has been added to the soaking syrup to cut down on the rum's boldness. The result is a baba rum full of complex layers of flavor, while still holding to the traditional French recipe.
