ISLAND PINA COLADA



Island Pina Colada image

Ever wonder why the Piña Coladas you make at home taste nothing like the ones served at your favorite tropical destination? Most recipes simplify the colada into a mixture of rum, pineapples & ice with a splash of coconut milk. A flavorful Piña Colada has two kinds of rum (light and dark), cream and even bitters added which make the concoction a true tropical delight. Use high quality Puerto Rican rum in this recipe for the best result. Enjoy!

BUSHWACKER

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.

1/2 ounce rum (Cruzan is the best, but use whatever brand you have)
1/2 ounce vodka (any brand)

1/2 ounce Kahlua (or a coffee flavored off-brand name)
1/2 ounce amaretto liqueur (any brand)
1/2 ounce chococo chocolate-flavored liqueur
1/2 ounce Frangelico (I recommend it) (optional)

3 dashes of grated nutmeg
1 tablespoon whipped cream
1 maraschino cherry

Steps:

  • Put everything, except nutmeg, whipped cream and cherries in a blender and use enough ice that when blended will be the consistency of a milkshake.
  • Blend, pour into glasses, and top with whipped cream, a cherry, and a couple dashes of grated nutmeg.

  • But use caution!
  • They taste like there is no alcohol in them and most people have a tendency to get"bushwacked!"
