Day 14: "Caribou Boogalou"


The next drink I decided to do was a spin on the “Caribou Lou” cocktail, made famous by rapper Tech N9ne. The “Caribou Boogalou” is my excuse to use my Malibu Passion Fruit Liqueur. : )

Here’s the recipe I used (taken from DrinksMixer.com):

1 part rum (Bacardi Gold Puerto Rican Rum)
1 part passion fruit rum (Malibu Passion Fruit Liqueur)
1 part pineapple juice (Dole Pineapple Juice)

Pour ingredients into a glass in any order, stir, enjoy.

Feel free to take liberties in serving this drink. Garnish with a variety of fruits or embellishments, and serve in just about any type of glass.

Personal tasting notes: Like many of the other cocktails in this blog, the problem with this cocktail is that the ingredients didn’t blend well. It was almost uncanny how each ingredient had its own “feature” for a moment, at least until the next took over. I wouldn’t recommend this cocktail, but I would be interested to try the original “Caribou Lou.”
