Visiting White Bay on Jost Van Dyke for the first time was a trip. Our boat pulled up to this incredibly beyond believable gorgeous white crescent of sand as we “rapped” I’m on the Boat (very badly I admit).
As we anchored, Captain Darrel told us that we should visit Soggy Dollar Bar and order a “Nilla Killa”. Don’t think we even asked what was in it – it sounded good. “Wicked good” said Darrel. Darrel asked if we wanted to dinghy in. Dinghy in???? This is the home of the Soggy Dollar Bar – we had to swim in with our soggy dollars to get the full effect – right?
Anyway – great day, great drink. Soggy Dollar’s Nilla Killa recipe is TOP secret according to Mic – the bartender at Soggy at the time, so of course we set out to re-create when we got home (although it’s basically a Painkiller with vanilla rum). If only it came with that incredible view! Enjoy!

Just got back from St John and the first thing I did was Google the Nilla Killa recipe. I tried yours and it is spot on. One thing, however, I followed the recipe to a tee and only got one serving.
I know what you mean Paul! We need to look into a party sized version of the recipe ;)
Hi,
We love this recipe and it’s just like we remember! Note about servings: we just use a shot glass as the “ounce” and it works the same way. Replace one shot for every ounce in the recipe and the formula is the same – same parts juice to alcohol to coconut. This ends up making about 4 servings – a little more depending on ice and size of glass.
Good to know – thx! Makes it easy to figure out measurements to mix up larger quantities.
The Nilla Killa is to die for. I first saw the recipe on FaceBook, I had to try it.
Glad you like it Susan! It is absolutely one of our favorites too!
