Celebrate Jamaican Style
To celebrate Durban's arrival in Port Antonio this week we have a selection of drinks to help you get tropical.
Jamaican Rum Punch
- 1 cup Bacardi 151 rum
- 1/2 cup Myer's dark rum
- 1/4 cup Malibu coconut rum
- 2 1/2 cups pineapple juice
- 2 1/2 cups orange juice
- 1/4 cup lime juice
- 3 tbsp grenadine syrup
- ice cubes
Mix all ingredients together in a blender or punch bowl. Pour over ice cubes in any type of glass.
The next three are courtesy of Barbara Walker at Hotel Mockingbird Hill and brought to us by Steph, who has been doing plenty of quality control since arriving at the weekend!
Clipper Fizzle (non-alcoholic and therefore not tested by us!)
- 8cl pineapple juice
- 4cl orange juice
- 1cl lime juice
- 1cl simple syrup
- dash of angostura bitters
- soda water
Put everything except the soda water into a tulip glass with ice. Top up with soda and garnish with a slice of orange.
Clipper Fizz (extensively tested!)
- 4cl Genesis
- 2cl Mocking Bird Orange Liqueur
- 8cl pineapple juice
- 4cl orange juice
- 1cl lime juice
- 1cl simple syrup
- dash of angostura bitters
- soda water
Put everything except the soda in a cocktail shaker with some ice. Shake well and pour into a tulip glass with ice. Top up with soda and garnish with a slice of orange.
Super Clipper Fizz (to be tested when Durban crosses the line first)
- 4cl Genesis
- 2cl Mocking Bird Orange Liqueur
- 8cl pineapple juice
- 4cl orange juice
- 1cl lime juice
- 1cl simple syrup
- dash of angostura bitters
- prosecco
Put everything except the prosecco in a cocktail shaker with some ice. Shake well and pour into a tulip glass with ice. Top up with prosecco and garnish with a slice of orange.
Fingers crossed they get to try out the Super Clipper Fizz!
BTW if you're wondering what Genesis is, it's a local white rum, so Bacardi would do as a substitute for those of us not lucky enough to be in Jamaica!
