A very sweet and tropical beverage. It hits with you with coconut and pineapple right away, with some citric acid tones in there. Unlike the Che Surprise however, the citric acid is not overpowering this time. There's a slight burn from the rum as well, although the spice and alcoholic taste of rum is masked by the sweeter ingredients. The pineapple taste sticks with you for a few moments after a sip, making this a nice poolside beverage. This is something you'd definitely garnish with an orange wheel and an umbrella. This is another recipe I made from scratch, but I tried my hardest to stick with traditionally Caribbean flavors and motifs!

This is an interesting one! The recipe is based off a drink from a video game called VA11 HALL-A, which may or may not have played a role in me becoming interested in alcohol. It's basically a blue long island, but simplified. It tastes really good though, and it's a nice bubbly drink. It's not too strong, nor is it too sweet, but it is refreshing, and it's possibly my favorite recipe!
Again, I did not make this, SoulbomB did, so all credit goes to him! I mainly wanted to share this because it's an awesome recipe and he's incredibly talented. Please, check out his youtube channel.
