What drinks should I try?!
I am 18, almost 19!. I am going to the Bahamas!. (No, not a cruise so I don't need to worry about cruise line regulations!.) I know the legal drinking age is 18 so I'd like to try some drinks!. I do drink on occassion now with my family at holidays and such (I was raised Italian)!. I enjoy sweet and wet wines!. I am not into dry wine!. I hate beer!. I sometimes like harder stuff (Vodka+juice, Kaluah Mixes, etc)!. I don't like rum, but I do like coconut rum!. I enjoy Pina Coladas and Daqaris!. I tried a strawberry margarhita, but did not like it!. All of this is from sips, tastes, and maybe a glass on holidays!. Any ideas on what to try in the Bahamas!? I want something new!. Of course by my taste I'm sure you can figure out I'm a girl!. I don't know if I'm a light weight because I don't drink a lot!. Ideas!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

Okay!.!.!.coconut drinks in the carribean are generally phenomenal! I have to say though, stay away from them! Usually, drinks in the bahamas are made with real coconut milk and real coconut cream, not purified or processed!. If you consume the drinks with those ingredients (pina coladas) you will likely get an awful stomach ache! be forewarned! Here are some drinks I loved when i went!.!.!.

I don't mean to get all granny on you but just make sure you pace yourself!. Acting like an idiot and vomiting makes the rest of the cruise a little embarrassing!
If you like sweet drinks I'd go for fruity cocktails - you'll love them!. I like orange/pineapple juice based ones with lots of ice, you might like the creamier ones better!. You can have mocktails (same but no alcohol) in between so you still look cool but aren't hitting the booze too hard :)
Then there's always the always classy gin and tonic!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Don't know if they make these in the Bahamas!.!.but try the Grasshopper, the Flying Grasshopper, The Dirty Grasshopper, The Vodka Grasshopper, The Coffee Grasshopper!. They are all sweet and tasty!.!.like cookies!. Few of them have enough alcohol to get you too tipsy from just one!. The original grasshoppers have creme de menthe, so if you don't like mint you won't like them!. They're all creamy and yummy!.!.!.good for after a meal, but probably too sweet to get drunk on!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I'm a beer drinker myself but I'd recommend trying the house drinks, if there are any!. I went to Puerto Rico recently with my girlfriend and tried the house drinks with her at each restaurant we went to!. They were all mixed drinks that I've never heard of and believe were unique to each place!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I don't know if you'll find any in the Bahamas, but try hard cider!. It isn't overpoweringly sweet, but I also hate beer and dry wines, and I love cider!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
drink anything and everything you can get your hands on you only live onceWww@FoodAQ@Com
Try a tootsie roll!. Kaluah & OJ!. It really does taste like a tootsie roll!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
