BUSHWACKER



Bushwacker image

The Bushwacker was first created in 1975 at a pub in St. Thomas (Virgin Islands). It tastes like a creamy, chocolate version of the classic Piña Colada. There's quite a lot going on in the Bushwacker, with its array of different liquors that contribute a specific element to the drink. But the coconut adds a tropical colada...

  • Chill your ingredients: Chilling the ingredients before you blend them will help to create a smoother, more refreshing drink.
  • Use a blender with a powerful motor: A powerful blender will help to crush the ice and blend the ingredients together smoothly.
  • Don't over-blend the drink: Over-blending the drink can make it too watery. Blend it just until the ice is crushed and the ingredients are combined.
  • Serve the drink immediately: Bushwhackers are best served immediately after they are made. If you need to make them ahead of time, store them in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours.
