Here is a delicious rum based tropical drink you can make at home to turn a dreary winter day into something a bit more tropical!

Banana Rum Frappe

2 oz light rum
1 oz banana liqueur
1 oz orange juice
orange for garnish
cracked ice

Add the rum, banana liqueur and the orange juice to a cocktail shaker with a bit of cracked ice and shake well. Strain into a cocktail glass that is nearly filled with cracked ice. Add a slice of orange for garnish. If you want a frozen version of this drink, put all the ingredients in a blender and blend. While it is blending, drop a bit of ice a little at a time until you get the frozen consistency you like.

Sanford Shopping Tip: If you live in Sanford, you can buy the alcohol you need to make this Christmas cocktail at either Hannaford or Shaw's. Walmart does not sell hard liquor in Sanford. Hannaford is located at 800 Main Street (north of downtown) and Shaw's is located at 1364 Main Street (in the Center for Shopping in South Sanford).
