Coquito - A Coconut Rum Cocktail

Coquito – A Coconut Rum Cocktail

I kind of fell in love with the idea of the Coquito – A Coconut Rum Cocktail, before I ever had my first sip of this cocktail concoction. Thinking back, I’m not even sure where I first heard about the creamy, frothy, coconut deliciousness laced with Rum and touched with cinnamon that is the Coquito. Def not when I was growing up in Iowa, lol! The Midwest weather, especially in Minnesota, where I live now isn’t traditionally considered to be too hospitable to people used to warmer climes – or even to us born here. The Coquito will make me forget all that, even though it’s January, now!

Hard Cider Homemade Moonshine

Apple Pie Moonshine

So Apple Pie Moonshine – if it hasn’t been on your radar, read on my friend. This is a delish adult beverage that’s going to be fantastic at any fall/winter outing, tailgate, or football party, or bonfire, or maybe even Thanksgiving, or after you rake leaves, or at the cabin, or on that ski or snowmobile trip. You get the idea! Serve it anytime.

Baileys Irish Cream Recipe Reverse Engineered

Bailey’s Irish Cream. I remember my first taste. I was barely legal and didn’t have my license with me, and my Dad, my StepMom Pat, and their friends vouched for me. That probably doesn’t happen anymore. They just really thought I should try Bailey’s. I agree and think everyone should, especially this Baileys Irish Cream Recipe Copycat Version.
