We saw this recipe on a recent episode of The Chew and knew we had to give it a try. Let’s just say – IT’S DELICIOUS! A light pumpkin taste combined with the spiced rum and pumpkin pie spice…
An excellent “treat” for the adults this Halloween!

We recently ran across a post from The Yummy Life that showed a recipe, an easy one at that, for flavored frozen fruity daiquiris. Thinking it would be perfect for an upcoming backyard get-together, we set out to mix up a batch.
Each daiquiri contains a LOT of frozen fruit (guess you could say it’s healthy!) and the taste is simply scrumptious. The best part is, you can mix up a whole bunch of them ahead of time, pour them into 16 oz. mason jars and freeze them until you need them – just leave a little room at the top as they expanded as they freeze! The alcohol keeps them from freezing completely, so just remove them from the freezer about 10 minutes before serving, stir slightly and add a garnish!
Make a batch without the rum for the little ones and designated drivers!
Which one looks tastiest to you?

Notes
If you are making these ahead of time, you can pour them into 16 oz. mason jars and freeze them until you need them – just leave a little room at the top as they will expand as they freeze! The alcohol keeps them from freezing completely, so just remove them from the freezer about 10 minutes before serving, stir slightly and add a garnish!BONUS: You can also make these with no alcohol for little ones and designated drivers!!
For those of you that have followed us for a while, you know how much we love to sail in the Caribbean. To us, a sailing vacation is the perfect combination of getting on the water yet still being able to enjoy some relaxing island time. A few years ago we were asked by a friend to create a rum recipe for a sailing trip he was going to photograph, and we were up for the challenge. After a bit of experimenting and mixology, we came up with a tasty concoction we named Wind In Your Sails Punch.
Whether you’re about to sail the beautiful blue waters of the Caribbean or just dreaming of being there – enjoy!

One of the tastiest ingredients used in tropical drinks in my opinion, is pineapple – fresh pineapple if possible! This frosty drink calls for 1 and 1/2 cups of pineapple per drink and for the best taste possible, we used a fresh pineapple cut into chunks. At least half of the pineapple used should be frozen for the creamiest effect.
This drink is considered a daiquiri, which traditionally are not overly sweet and just a bit tart due to the addition of lime juice. If you like a sweet drink, cut back on the amount of lime juice and bump up the amount of simple syrup added. And if you like your drink even tarter, add more lime to taste!

Happy National Piña Colada Day! July 10 is a day set aside to celebrate one of the best known tropical rum cocktails – a cocktail sure to bring back memories of time on a beautiful Caribbean beach.
The Piña Colada originated in Puerto Rico. The name means strained pineapple and a traditional recipe calls for pineapple juice, white rum and coconut cream. We’ve posted a traditional Piña Colada recipe below, as well as a recipe for Piña Colada cupcakes! Yet another way to enjoy this favorable concoction. Have a great Piña Colada Day! Cheers!

4 oz. pineapple juice 4 oz. Coco Lopez cream of coconut 3 oz. light rum 2 c. crushed ice fresh nutmeg Pour pineapple juice, cream of coconut and rum into a blender with the crushed ice and blend until smooth. Add more ice if needed to thicken. Pour into a glass, sprinkle with nutmeg and garnish with a slice of orange or pineapple.

In another small mix together the flour, baking powder and salt.
In a medium mixing bowl beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, then add the eggs one at a time, beating as you go.
While you’re mixing slowly add the rum mixture to the butter and sugar mixture.
Then add the flour mixture slowly until all the ingredients are well incorporated.
Fill cupcake wrappers 3/4 full and bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until tops are starting to turn lightly golden brown.
Let the cupcakes cool then ice them with the Coconut Cream Frosting below.
Coconut Cream Frosting
16 oz cream cheese 1/2 c. butter 4 c. powdered sugar 4 tbs cream of coconut (optional) shredded coconut for garnish, pineapple chunks, cherries
In a medium mixing bowl, cream together the butter, cream cheese, and coconut cream with a mixer.
Slowly add the powdered sugar and mix on low speed until it is completely incorporated.
Ice cooled cupcakes and garnish with shredded coconut, pineapple chunks and cherries, if desired.
Summer is in full swing and that means watermelon season! If you’re a fan of watermelon, you’ll probably love the taste of this cool rum drink with a touch of sweetness and a little added tartness. Add a little more sugar for a sweeter drink or a little more lime juice to tarten it up! Enjoy the taste of summer!

Papaya, mango, rum and ice cream – what’s not to like about this summer dessert drink? This tasty concoction reminds me of the great fresh fruit (and rum!) that we enjoyed in Jamaica. We just barely blended the papaya, mango and rum so that there were still small chunks of papaya – but you can blend it longer if you want a creamier mix.
