With cold weather and holiday season upon us, certain drinks such as "cream" spirits are back in stock and that warms my heart. While nobody that I know has managed to create an authentic packaged coquito, I am thrilled to see that Cutwater Spirits is continuing to innovate when it comes to rum cream.
For most Americans, a cream spirit is limited to Bailey's or whiskey creams but anyone who has traveled in the Caribbean knows that rum creams are enjoyed all year round. For some reason, though it is only recently emerging in the US market. We're thrilled that not only has Cutwater Spirits taken their Bali Hai Rum with tropical notes of pineapple and coconut and combined it with cream and cinnamon to create this Tiki Holiday Spirit.
While I am enjoying drinking it straight, it also makes for a great mixer too. Let's take a look at the cocktail ideas below ...

Why we picked it: a grill you can actually carry to the campsite, the tailgate or the cabin without borrowing a truck. Stainless, no propane tank to wrestle, and hot enough to cook for four guys rather than reheat for one.
