About the Bushwacker
Created in 1975 at the Ship's Store and Sapphire Pub in St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands, originally with vodka. A rum version reached Pensacola, Florida, in 1977, and the Gulf Coast has claimed it ever since, with a Bushwacker Festival held at Pensacola Beach from 1986.
Missing something?
- No Dark Rum? Use Aged Rum (Lighter, less molasses)
- No Dark Rum? Use Gold Rum (Lighter, less molasses)
- No Brown Crème de Cacao? Use White Crème de Cacao (Same flavour, clear)
- No Coconut Cream? Use Cream (Loses the coconut flavour)
- No Milk? Use Cream (Richer; use half cream, half water to match)
