Just returned from Barbados and thought this is an appropriate drink for the site . Love the Hooch by the way

• 8 Ripe Bananas
• 8oz. Lime Juice
• 1 cup Sugar
• 12oz. Light colored Rum- I prefer Mount Gay Rum!
• 12oz. Dark Rum Again- best with Mount Gay Rum but any sort of Rum will do
• 1 qt. Pineapple Juice
• 12oz. Mango Nectar
• 2 Limes Sliced
• Chill Everything -except bananas
• Thinly slice 6 of the bananas
• Place the Banana slices, the lime juice and sugar in a blender and blend the mixture a few minutes until smooth
• Pour over a Block of ice in a punch bowl
• Pour in the Light and dark Rum, the pineapple and mango nectars and stir and chill one hour before serving
• Cut the remaining bananas, limes into thin slices and float on top of the punch before serving
• This is a really good cocktail to be served mid afternoon on a hot day on a patio, roof top deck or by the swimming pool and has been a hit at all my summer parties since I discovered from Barbados - enjoy!
