Cruise Cocktails: Bananapalooza

This week’s cruise cocktail is actually two drinks.  For some reason I have been craving bananas all week.  This weekend I plan to thoroughly satisfy that craving.  So, that brings me to this weeks cruise cocktails.  Ironically I have never had either of these on a cruise ship.  Normally while on a ship I go for the drinks with the highest alcohol content in order to get the most bang for my buck.  Neither of these drinks are heavy on the booze but both really make up for it in taste.  So, if you are in the mood for a banana drink this weekend give either “The Dirty Banana” or “The Bahamian Rapture” a try.

The Dirty Banana

• 1 oz. Creme de Banana
• 1oz. Cream de Cacao
• 1oz. Kahlua
• 2 scoops Vanilla Ice Cream

Blend six ice cubes with ice-cream in a blender until smooth

Add liqueurs and continue blending, again until smooth

Add more ice-cream if needed (for milk-shake consistency).

Pour into a glass, and enjoy.

Bahamian Rapture

• 1 oz. Dark Rum
• 1/4 oz. Coconut Run Liqueur
• 1/4 oz. Creme de Banana
• 1/2 oz. Cream

Mix the Dark Rum and Cream.

Pour into a glass.

Layer the rest in this order

1. Creme de Banana,
2. Coconut Rum Liquer.

Enjoy the tastey deliciousness of the Bahamian Rapture
