We can’t guarantee that – to borrow a phrase from Madonna – you’ll feel “like a virgin” after this cocktail. But you will feel in a Virgin Islands state of mind after a few swigs of this Reef Rum Punch, one of the signature frozen drinks at Frenchman’s Reef & Morning Star Marriott Beach Resort’s Sunset Grill. Featuring the USVI’s own Cruzan rum and tropical fruit juices, it’s Virgin Islands happiness in a highball. Bottoms up!
Ingredients
1 ¼ oz. Cruzan Raspberry Rum
1 ¼ oz. Captain Morgan Silver Rum
½ oz. Pomegranate Liqueur
½ oz. Passion Fruit Juice
½ oz. Mango Juice
½ oz. Soda Water
Method:
Combine all ingredients except soda water. Shake and strain over ice into a highball glass. Top with soda water. Garnish with orange and lime wheel.
Cheers!
