Frozen Painkiller

We ordered our first Frozen Painkiller from The Longboard on St. John a few years ago after a great day exploring the beautiful sandy beaches on the north shore. Painkillers have been one of our go-to favorites for a long, long time (find out more about this popular drink here) – ever since we tried our first one on St. John in the 90’s. However, the Frozen Painkiller we were served at The Longboard was something special. Cold, creamy and so refreshing. We’re not sure what their exact recipe is, but we came home and attempted to make our own. They’ll never be quite as special as the one’s there (our view is not quite the same!), but it certainly reminds us of great times in the islands. The recipe below makes one tall drink but can be easily doubled.

  • 6 oz Pineapple Juice
  • 1.5 oz Orange Juice
  • 1.5 oz Coconut Creme
  • 3 oz Rum (Authentic Painkillers are made with Pusser's Rum)
  • 1 – 2 c Ice (Or, substitute frozen pineapple for some of the ice. It does make the Painkiller thicker and more filling, but it tastes good!)
  • Freshly Grated Nutmeg
  • .5 0z Dark Rum (Optional, as a floater)

Instructions

  • Put all ingredients in a blender and blend just until smooth. Pour into a tall glass. Add the optional dark rum on the top if you'd like a floater, then sprinkle with nutmeg and serve immediately.
