The Tipsy Traveler

When your dream vacation is a palapa on a beautiful Caribbean beach, one of the essentials for the day is a great Caribbean drink. After the stress of planning, packing and traveling, a beautiful beach is just the most relaxing place to be and a cocktail just makes everything better.
From time to time, we post some of our favorite adult beverage recipes on our Facebook page.
The Bahama Mama is an old favorite.
The original recipe blends the flavors of pineapple juice, coconut and a touch of coffee with two types of rum. Bartenders have taken a few liberties and stopped adding the coffee liquor, for other juices. Bartenders and many recipe books have dumped the quarter ounce of coffee liqueur it calls for and made other small changes.
The flavor isn’t just your typical pineapple-coconut tropical punch; the coffee liqueur adds a rich, almost chocolate note that’s way off in the background. It makes the drink better but doesn’t call attention to itself.
