Mahalo!
🍓🥥🍍🍌🌋🍹
Here’s another sweet summer sipper! A Lava Flow Cocktail. This is the perfect “day-drinking” kinda cocktail. It’s actually dessert in a glass, with a good bit of rum mixed in. And it’s so good! You’ll want to share this drink with friends! Put on a little 🎶🎵music, I’m thinking 🌋Volcano by Jimmy Buffet enjoy a little 🗿Tiki Time and chill!
“I know the answer now, to where I’m a gonna go, when the 🌋 volcano blow”………I’m gonna have a Lava Flow!
When I was on my 💕💖 honeymoon in 🏝Kauai, I first discovered this drink. I think I had one every morning, just like orange juice or coffee! Well, it is filled with fruit, and a da rum don’t hurt it a bit. Delicious 🏝 island flavor to savor.
Here’s a Tiki-Tail that’s almost as fun to make as it is to drink. Create a Lava Flow Cocktail by combining two blended fruity rummy concoctions into your glass. The strawberry 🍓 “lava” will flow when you add the coconut 🥥 banana 🍌 and pineapple 🍍 to the glass. Fun to watch, but even “funner” to drink.
You better lava me now, or lava me not!
How To Make A Lava Flow Cocktail!🍹
In a blender, combine the 🍓strawberries, ice and rum. Blend until smooth. Divide between glasses, filled with ice. You should have about 1/3 space left in each glass.
Rinse the blender. Add the 🍌banana, 🍍pineapple juice, 🥥 coconut milk and simple syrup. (If your fruit is ripe, you may not need any simple syrup. Test before you add the sweetener). Blend until smooth.
To create the “Lava Flow” Pour the puree over the strawberry mixture. The strawberry mixture will begin to “flow over the banana, coconut mixture.
Garnish with a 🍍pineapple wedge or a 🍓strawberry. Serve with a paper straw. Enjoy!
I do know where I’m a gonna go when the volcano blow!
