What's Your Favorite Drink in Jamaica?

Postby ECO » Fri Feb 27, 2009 7:43 pm

When you "get your drink on" in Jamaica what type of drink tops your list?

I would create a poll but all I can think of is:

Red Stripe

Something fruity

Coconut milk

Guinness beer

Bottled water

That clear stuff in a bottle they pass off as Rum.

It's actually lighter fuel.


Thats sooooo funny!!!

My brother had a fantastic Christmas with Wray & his Nephew... had the rest of us rolling too!!

The one and only.



It makes a great mouthwash!

I was going to try it in a drink but we didn't have any thing to mix it with. I'll try it next time with coconut milk.

Same advice applies.
Don't light any matches in the vicinity :mrgreen:


That sort of rules out brushing my teeth, washing my mouth out with overproof and lighting a spliff for breakfast! :roll:

LOL@ lighter fluid. Wray & Nephew is potent :yipes: My husband calls it " Rude to your parents" drink. I would NEVER consider drinking it away from home unless he was with me.

Aside from the Red Stripe, the first drink I always order is the Jamaican Rum Punch. Luv 'em! And I'm still kicking myself that I didn't have a Kirby's Rum Punch at Canoe in April. I must've been really messed up that day to neglect to ask for Kirby's Rum Punch...and to order a round for everyone.

My son was telling me about a popular bar drink on Okinawa, Japan, called Cumshots ("Can we have a round of Cumshots over here, please?"). I like fanciful names for drinks, but I think I'll stick with the rum punch.

Please explain the straw thing? IMO part of the charm of drinkjng it from a glass is getting the mustache.

My new favorite drink is overproof mixed with mango and carrot juice....yummy. I also tried it with coffee loaded with fresh sugar cane and it was excellent.
