This creamy, fruity, refreshing rum drink is the signature cocktail of the Virgin Islands. It's similar to a piña colada, only less sweet and more sophisticated, with rich, smooth, subtle flavors. A wonderful drink for a festive brunch or for cocktails on a summer night.

These look so good. I can't wait to make painkillers! I'm waiting for the weekend. Thanks for the recipe and for telling the story. Interesting stuff!

This drink is amazing!! I first had it at the Soggy Dollar Bar years ago on a day trip to Jost Van Dyke… which I love the name of the bar and the story behind the name!!  Quite true- the dollars I paid with were indeed- soggy!  I didn’t know about the legal aspect of the story- so thank you for sharing!  To all… drink up and enjoy!  🍹
