No, I have never been to Bahama Breeze restaurant, or to the Caribbean, for that matter -- although, I would love to do both -- but, my friend @lynetteradio Twittered that she was going and how much she loved their website. So, being a good lemming, I Googled them (Lynette's right, their website is very prettiful) and also found this most awesome recipe for what may just be my new signature cocktail, this summer:
This recipe serves: 4
EQUIPMENT: Two quart containers and three small bowls. Four large chilled martini glasses. A paring knife, a blender, a teaspoon, and a cutting board.
INGREDIENTS:
Fresh kiwi, mango, and strawberry (Peel the kiwi and mango, and cut into slices, each weighing 10-11 oz. each)
Granulated sugar
Three to four lemons, limes and oranges
Cuervo Gold Tequila Dekuyper Cactus Juice Schnapps (chilled)
Simple Syrup: Mix 1 ¼ lb. sugar with 16 oz. of warm water until dissolved. Refrigerate half of mix.
Margarita Mix: Squeeze juice from halves of lime, orange, and lemon into a quart container and add remaining half of the simple syrup to the fruit juice. Then refrigerate the mix. These two mixes will last for 24 hours.
Fruit Ices: Blend each fruit, ice, and two ounces of simple syrup separately until thick. Store separately in bowls. These three mixes will last for 2-3 hours.
READY TO SERVE:
1. Blend Margarita mix, tequila, and ice until thick.
2. Add two teaspoons of each ice in the bottom of your chilled Martini glass.
3. Top with the thick Margarita Mix, and it pour over the drink.
4. Mix a shot of Cactus Juice into the drink.
5. Place lime and orange wedge on the rim to serve.
Or, we could always do what my friend and fellow Jersey girl Lynette did.
