thanks for your kind reply. I have that very same recipe. I used it as a base and tweaked it a bit and I must say, it could be the vodka talking...but it's pretty damn good.

My cousin is visiting from Trinidad and here is the recipe I plan to serve:

ps: i had to drink the revisions so I'm feelin' no pain right about now...had a couple of oops moments :)

16 oz soursop juice
6 oz pear vodka (absolut)
2oz Malibu coconut rum
.5 oz fresh lime juice
1 1/2 teaspoons curaçao liqueur
4 dashes of angostura bitters
.5 oz coconut cream
.5 oz almond syrup
.5 oz pear syrup

the almond and coconut work really well with soursop and keep the drink true to flavor despite the pear absolut and syrup....skip the almond and you're missing out.

adjust the pear flavor down a bit and increase the cocomut to taste more of the soursop but mind the sweetness extra syrup/coconut cream will add.

I've no one here to bounce this drink off of right now so hopefully someone else will try it and give me some feedback...if not, no worries, the girls will be here by the time the sun sets and I'll let you all know how it went down.

thanks again
