HAPPY HOUR THURSDAYS!

Thursday nights used to be my favorite nights... the perfect night in NYC to hit up many happy hours! SO...each Thursday I will feature a most delicious cocktail for my fabulous readers to enjoy. I am currently craving a Ron y Pina. It is only 11am here in New York, but once 5pm hits, its on!

INGREDIENTS:
2oz rum
4oz pineapple juice
1 lime slice

DIRECTIONS:
Pour rum over ice in highball glass.
Stir in pineapple juice and add lime slice.

COMMENTS:
The drink of choice on Roatan, Ron y Piña (rum and pineapple) is an deliciously refreshing way to toast the sunset. The mildly sweet, fairly acidic flavor of pineapple juice smooths out the rum’s bite while not overpowering the drink with sweetness. The drink can be made more tart by apply small squeezes of juice from the lime slice.

Note: Best with amber or spiced rums, especially with Flor de Caña Gold 4 Year, an amazing “bottom-shelf” rum served in most Roatan bars.
