cold, delicious.... Bushwackers!

Ahhhh.....

Spent this afternoon lounging by the pool then ventured inside to make that magical potion called "Bushwacker"!

We don't have them often (they tend to kick our @$$), and with the beautiful blue sunny skies of Lexington they really hit home. Took us right back to the islands!

Anyway - just thought I'd share my moment of ecstacy!

Wish I had been there! ...watched our daughter's volleyball tournaments all day!
I would have loved to be outside! It was a beautiful day!
We need to have a Kentucky gathering sometime!!

This weekend we made a drink from the book "A Trip To The Beach". It's called a Banana Cabana and I don't even want to think about how many calories it has, but it goes down reaal smooooooth! :D

Banana Cabana

To make two banana cabanas, put 1/2 cup Coco Lopez into a blender. Add 1/2 cup Baileys Irish Cream, 2 ripe bananas, 2 cups ice cubes, and if you like, 2 oz. white rum. (it’s also great without the rum). Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy.


I'm thinking of adding a dash of chocolate syrup in the next batch! :wink:

I just love bushwackers ... got "bushwacked" on my first trip to STT years ago. I always think one is not enough and two is too many ... they really do sneak up on you!!!

I'll definitely try the Banana Cabana - sounds great!

Baglab - you are right - 1 is never enough - 2 tends to be just a little too much - of course 3 really puts me out (but they're just sooooo good!)
