How to Mix a Dirty Banana
Mix up a tall glass of Caribbean decadence with one of the islands' signature cocktails -- the dirty banana. The banana part of the name is literal, while the dirty part comes from the coffee liqueur laced through the sweet fruit flavors. This frothy concoction packs a little more punch than the flavor suggests, so sip slowly and drink responsibly.
Things You'll Need
- Blender
- Ice
- Milk
- Coconut cream
- Coffee liqueur
- Rum
- Banana, peeled and sliced
- Ice cream, optional
- Chocolate syrup, optional
- Tall glass
- Pineapple wedge or cherry, optional
Instructions
-
Fill the bottom of your blender loosely with ice. Don't pack it in tightly or the blades may not move freely.
-
Add equal amounts of milk and coconut cream. The proportions don't have to be exact, but 1 ounce of each is good for a single drink.
-
Pour in equal amounts -- about 1.5 ounces per drink -- of coffee liqueur and rum.
-
Drop in one banana, peeled and sliced.
-
Cover the blender and whir until all of the ingredients are blended and smooth. Pour into a tall glass and garnish with a pineapple wedge or a cherry -- or go wild and add both.
