Bahama Sunset
A vibrant Caribbean cocktail inspired by the colours of a Bahamian sunset. Rich tropical pineapple, smooth coconut rum and a bright touch of fresh lemon are lifted by a gentle layer of strawberry liqueur, creating a naturally fading sunset effect in the glass. Refreshingly fruity with a pleasantly warming rum finish, the Bahama Sunset is made to be enjoyed slowly while the day fades into evening.Every sunset deserves a tropical toast.[ Also available on Difford's Guide ]
