Hi, I was just curious if you refrigerate the banana rum mixture for the 2-3 days? I'm worried that in this heat and humidity where I live it would go bad so although I'm assuming you do, I wanted to be sure so that I don't ruin it. Thanks so much for this recipe! Candy

This was a good, dense, banana bread. I marinated the bananas for 3 days just barely covered in the rum. We couldn't 'taste' the rum per say, but it had a nice flavor.
