Silly Question: Blender Drinks?

Post by IslandTime »

They say you might just be an alcoholic if you are thinking about your next drink.... Oh well! Does anyone have any "must have" on island blender drinks that they like to mix in their villa? Or recipes that they might like to share? I'm pretty much in unchartered waters here. I'm pretty much a beer kinda guy but I'm no stranger to mixed drinks and I love rum! The only thing I think I've ever made in a blender are margaritas. Boy when is the next meeting anyway?? :lol:

Here you go :)

Just click the following link and it will take you to "our" off topic forum with every drink receipe you can imagine (including my "stripper" drink - renamed by Jorge from the original name of "Skeeter" - you can read all about it there :wink: ) and my famous "knickers off" margarita - (although I should rename it the American term "panties off" not "knickers off" :wink:)

There's a great Pina Colada recipe on the side of the Coco Lopez can. It's easy. Rum, Coco Lopez, pineapple juice and ice. Use 151 for an extra kick!! Also there are lots of mixes. Just pour in blender, add booze and ice. These are great if you get drunk and can't remember recipes! Not that that would happen to any of us!!

I'm a beer drinker, too, and there's plenty of Red Stripe on-island to be had BUT you'll be in the Caribbean where rum is made AND is cheap so you've gotta drink it! 8)

May I suggest Painkillers? Mix 1 1/2 oz OJ, 4 ox pineapple juice, 1 oz of Coco Lopez coconut creme and 2 oz of Cruzan dark rum in a cocktail shaker and pour over ice. Dust with nutmeg. Congratulate yourself on choosing to visit St. John and Enjoy.

Thanks Pia! I guess I'm not the only one ready for the meetings! 7 pages! of responses! As for "knickers off" I don't think you need to rename it. I like "knickers off" !! er.. :oops: I mean I would like to try that drink. :oops:

liamsaunt, I know you are a regular so I figure you may see this. I must say I'm sorry about John. Allergic to Rum? What a tragedy!!

who's got a blender drink that doesn't involve coconut and isn't a margarita? that's what I'm looking for! (not for me but my sister who hates coconut of any kind, even liquid!)

Google "Frozen Mudslide"- there are many variations, but none include coconut or any ingredients in a Margarita.

I made frozen mango daquiris this weekend. I'll put the recipe and a photo in the off topic cocktail thread (can you tell that my brain is already on vacation!).
It's like looking in your soup and finding a whole different alphabet.
