BUSHWACKER



Bushwacker image

Every island in the Caribbean has its own "special" drink, and here in St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands, it is the "Bushwacker." Every bartender on island knows how to make them, and there are some variations, but this is the standard recipe. Tastes just like a chocolate milkshake...but be careful! It ain't no milkshake! Ever heard of a "virgin" drink? A "virgin" Bushwacker is a glass of ICE!! Haha! Multiply ingredients by the number of drinks you want. This recipe will make one drink.

1 ounce Grand Marnier
2 ounces Kahlua
1 ounce Amaretto

Tips for Making Bushwhackers

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh fruit, creamy liqueurs, and premium rum will make all the difference in the taste of your bushwhacker.
  • Chill your ingredients: Chilling the ingredients before blending will help to create a smooth and slushy texture.
  • Use a blender with a powerful motor: A blender with a powerful motor will be able to crush the ice and blend the ingredients until they are smooth.
  • Add the ingredients in the right order: Start by adding the ice, then the fruit, then the liqueurs, and finally the rum. This will help to prevent the ice from clumping together.
  • Blend until smooth: Blend the ingredients until they are smooth and slushy. If the mixture is too thick, add a little more milk or cream.
  • Garnish with whipped cream and a cherry: A dollop of whipped cream and a cherry on top will make your bushwhacker look and taste even more delicious.

Conclusion

Bushwhackers are a delicious and refreshing frozen cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect bushwhacker that will be sure to impress your friends and family.
