We are in the middle of a deep freeze here in Michigan. We have been below freezing for the past 23 days here in my area. So when St. Lucia was chosen as our destination this month, my thoughts immediately went to sunshine, beaches, and cocktails......
We are Eating the World St. Lucian Style........
- Amy's Cooking Adventures: St. Lucia Cacao Tea
- Sneha's Recipe: St. Lucia Grilled Pork With Souskai Sauce - Keto
- A Day in the Life on the Farm: St. Lucian Rum Punch
We normally go on a dive trip during the cold winter months, but this year it wasn't in our budget as we have a trip to Greece planned in June. We did, however, book a short trip to Tucson, Arizona, to visit with friends, so Frank made up this cocktail to celebrate.
We enjoy Rum Punches on every island we visit. I have not had the pleasure of visiting St. Lucia, but it is on my bucket list. All of the rum punches are pretty similar. This St. Lucian version is flavored with nutmeg and cinnamon.
Yield: 2 cocktails
