About the Goombay Smash

Created by Miss Emily Cooper at the Blue Bee Bar on Green Turtle Cay in the Bahamas. The original recipe remains a secret; this published recreation balances coconut and pineapple with orange liqueur and fresh lime.

Missing something?

  • No Dark Rum? Use Aged Rum (Lighter, less molasses)
  • No Dark Rum? Use Gold Rum (Lighter, less molasses)
  • No Triple Sec? Use Grand Marnier (Richer and cognac-based)
  • No Triple Sec? Use Blue Curaçao (Same flavour, but turns the drink blue)
  • No Lime Juice? Use Lime (Squeeze fresh: 1 lime gives about 25 ml)
  • No Lime Juice? Use Lemon Juice (Softer, different aroma)
