Top 10 Top 10 Tropical Tipples
-
1. Mojito
Papa Hemingway’s favorite splash: light rum, crushed mint leaves, sugar, and lime to taste. Sublime!
-
2. Hurricane
For a howling success, mix dark and light rums, blue Curaçao, and lemon juice.
-
3. Piña Colada
The blend of coconut milk, pineapple juice, and a choice rum is impossible to beat.
-
4. Rum Runner
Shades of Prohibition-era Caribbean smugglers, this classic comes in many styles and fruity flavors: watermelon, grenadine, blackberry, etc.
-
5. Sangria
The variations of fruit in red wine are almost endless.
-
6. Cosmopolitan
Variations on this vodka and Cointreau theme are creative. Often done with cranberry and/or orange notes.
-
7. Daiquiri
Another timeless Caribbean rum concoction, any way you like it: mango, strawberry, lime, peach, guava, etc.
-
8. Margarita
Not neglecting this southof-the-border treat, in regular and frozen incarnations, paired with any fruit – and a range of liqueurs, too.
-
9. Mai Tai
One version of the Polynesian perennial features crème de noyaux, banana, grenadine, and tropical juices.
-
10. Martini
Be prepared for this old standby to appear in a thousand creative guises: with unexpected fruit liqueurs, for example, or even with white or milk chocolate!
