I wish I could answer your question with a name, but I am guessing it was a Hawaiian what with all the Kona coffee and the pineapple and the glavin.

I use this combo all the time, and am a big fan. It's funny you'd bring it up as I just did a little demo on Friday night for some folks where I used that very combo. The point I was trying to make was that coffee liqueur (and coffee brandy) has a place in many good tropicals, and that it should not be collecting dust or used only in "creamy dessert drinks".

I have been considering whipping up an all Kona coffee liqueur myself for some time now, but I find I am fairly satisfied with the usual common store shelf brands of java booze. How much better could it be with Kona coffee? I dunno.

All hail coffee and pineapple. It isn't just for breakfast.
