On a beautiful spring Saturday our house was bustling with activity. One child had plans to attend a movie with her friend in the late afternoon. Another child had plans to have friends over for a cookout and then attend a later movie. To keep us company, my husband and I invited our best friends to our house for a cookout also.
After our friends arrived, Vicki and I headed out to bring the first group of kids home from the movies, while my husband and OT ran the grill for the other group of kids. We then traded kids and left the first movie viewing pair at home to eat, while Vicki and I drove group two to the movies. Upon our return home, it was time for the adults to eat.
After enjoying our dinner, we were ready to relax after multiple trips to the theatre. As the guys were going to do the last movie run, I decided to create a beverage for Vicki and me. Having been making lots of tropically inspired drinks lately, I decided to continue the trend but add a twist- of lime. Hence the unique name of this drink, PiCoLiBa- Pineapple, Coconut, Lime, & Banana.
Sitting in our dining room and sipping cocktails may have been far from an island vacation, but it did offer a relaxing and delicious way to end our evening.
PiCoLiBa
2 oz. pineapple coconut rum
2 oz. key lime rum
1 oz. banana liqueur
2 oz. pineapple juice
lemon-lime seltzer
2 lime wedges
Fill martini shaker with ice, and add both rums, liqueur, and juice. Shake well. Pour mixture into two martini glasses, dividing evenly. Top with seltzer. Garnish with lime wedge, if desired.
