Been making Mr. Bali Hai's like there's no tomorrow lately. Unsweetened pineapple juice, fresh lemon juice, homemade coffee syrup, Kahlua, silver rum, and Meyers dark.

There's just something about that sweet pineapple and strong coffee flavor together. Perfect cool down cocktail on a warm and muggy evening at the backyard tiki bar!

Ever try the Castaway out of Remixed (I believe)?

Pineapple juice, Kaluha, Light rum. When I first read it, the idea kinda turned my stomach...pineapple juice and Kaluha??? But then I made one. Pleasantly surprised how well the flavors worked together.

Anyway, Sams Club has gotten in some champagne mangoes in. My wife is from the Philippines and says these taste closest to the ones she ate there. Made a Banaquiri (banana daiquiri) per the recipe in "Introducing Original Polynesian Tropical Bar Recipes" and chopped one of the mangoes up and threw it in the blender with it. Mango Banana daiquiri.

No, I haven't tried that. I have to get a copy of that book. I'll check it out, thanks!

I'll give those champagne mangoes a go too...sounds pretty good!
