All that’s missing is the umbrella.

But truth be told, we’re not sure that there’s room for anything else in this RumRunner, the house specialty at the bar and restaurant of the same name at Hotel Caravelle in St. Croix.

Made with locally blended Cruzan coconut and banana rums, it also features blackberry rum, Grenadine, sour mix and pineapple juice, all topped with a generous floater of Black Strap rum.

RumRunners’ rummy libation is best enjoyed with a view Christiansted’s sailboat-filled harbor – no cocktail umbrella required.
