Frozen Mango Daiquiri

Mango and rum just naturally seem to compliment each other (see Mango Mojito, Mango Colada, Spicy Mango Daiquiri, Rum and Mango Salsa, Mango Hurricane, Papaya Mango Rum Float). While perusing the shelves of the local liquor store, we found a mango fruit puree drink mix and thought we’d give it a try in a frozen daiquiri. So easy, cold and delicious! Definitely a go to drink when you need something cold and mangoey!

Warm Rum Mocha

It’s cold. Where we live, the weather is more often warm (or hot!), but we still get a day or two of downright chilliness this time of year.

We were going to put together a new tropically delicious rum drink today, but opted instead for a drink that will warm ya down to your cold toes. We’re fans of warm mocha coffee drinks and thought that adding some rum (and a few other ingredients) might make for a good drink for this weekend. If you’re stuck in some cold weather right now, we hope you’ll enjoy this Warm Rum Mocha.

Frothy Fallwacker

Frothy Fallwacker. Hmmm. Say that three times fast!

Slightly resembling the taste of a Bushwacker, the Frothy Fallwacker is lighter than a Bushwacker and perfect as a before or after dinner treat.

Add a small dollop of whipped cream if you wish. Heck, calories don’t count during the holidays, do they?

Sparkling Coconut Mojito

Ahhh… summer. Love the hot days and icy cold drinks!

We’ve been asked lately to post some lower cal drinks, or drinks that are Keto friendly and we thought of this one while sipping a Coconut La Croix Sparkling Water over ice.

When putting this drink together, we did a little research and found that although an unflavored rum contains nearly zero carbs, that was not necessarily true for flavored rums. In looking them up, coconut rums can vary in carb content from zero to a fair amount of carbs per serving, probably depending on if the flavor is infused or added with a liqueur. If you are counting carbs, please do your own research to make sure you are adding a low carb variety. If counting calories, the majority of calories come from the rum(s) which are at least 65 calories per ounce, but because the majority of the liquid is from the La Croix Coconut Sparkling Water (which contains 0 calories in 12 fluid oz.), the calorie count for this drink is fairly low for an alcoholic beverage.

I like a drink that is not really sweet, so I really enjoyed this Sparkling Coconut Mojito without the addition of the Stevia, but if you prefer a sweeter drink, add liquid Stevia to taste. Cheers!

Bananawhacker

If you’ve followed us for a while, you probably know of our affinity for Bushwackers. After all, how can you not be enamored with a combination of chocolate, rum, Bailey’s, Amaretto, (and a few other delicious ingredients)?

During a visit to Foxy’s on Jost Van Dyke several years ago, we noticed a Bananawhacker on the menu. We asked if it was similar to a Bushwacker and our server said, “Just try it. You’ll like it…”. We tried it and we definitely liked it. At least, as far as we remember. Equally as potent with an added banana component, these are da bomb.

Missing the islands, we’ve been going through photos of our travels recently and came across a photo of that visit to Foxy’s in 2015 when we started with a Chicken Roti (Foxy’s makes a good one!) and a Bananawhacker.

Realizing we had yet to post a Bananawhacker recipe, we found that Foxy’s is not the only location that features Bananawhackers. Pensacola, Florida, another place to score an amazing Bushwacker, also features Bananawhackers, or Bananawackers, depending on the location. The recipes all appear to be slightly different, but I’m sure you can’t go wrong with any of them. The recipe below is the closest we remember to Foxy’s Bananawhacker, so enjoy, but be careful – they are strong but so delicious!

Chocolate Rum Fudge

I was a little nervous about making fudge as I had heard it can be a little difficult, but this recipe was not hard at all. Serve a square with a glass of your favorite sipping rum for an excellent dessert treat.

The Tropical Escape

The Tropical Escape

Gosh, who couldn’t use a tropical escape right now? Although we’d rather be drinking this delicious tropical combination of coconut and guava on our favorite Caribbean beach, the taste, at least, will remind us of swinging in a hammock with the sound of gentle waves lapping the shore. Ahhh…

The Tropical Escape is super easy to make and we like to add the optional floater to ours. The taste of the guava and coconut blended together is delicate, so although we frequently use a dark rum as a floater, we opted for a good gold rum (we used Cruzan aged). It added a little more rum taste and a slightly stronger alcohol content without overpowering the cocktail.

The Classic Daiquiri

The Classic Daiquiri is one of the easiest cocktails to make (just 3 ingredients), but the result is light and delicious. For Friday Happy Hour this week we thought we’d make a Classic Daiquiri using a bottle of Banks 5 Island Rum that we had just received, and the resulting cocktail was very nice. A very nice balance of sweet and tart.

  • 1 oz plus 1 tsp Lime Juice (fresh is always best!)
  • 1/2 oz Simple Syrup
