Rum Therapy’s Top 10 Rum Recipe Posts of 2019

It’s become a Rum Therapy annual tradition to summarize the 10 Most Visited Rum Therapy Island Blog Posts of the year and then follow it up with Rum Therapy’s Top 10 Rum Recipe Posts. Kind of like the iconic Dick Clark New Years Eve Countdown, but, well, you don’t have to stay up as late!

So now, without further adieu, we present the countdown of Rum Therapy’s Top 10 Rum Recipe Posts of 2019.

#10

A variation of the popular Painkiller, the Nilla Killa is the first drink we tried at Soggy Dollar!
Find the recipe here: Nilla Killa

#9

How do you make a Jamaican Smile? Check out the recipe here!
Jamaican Smile

#8

Here’s another one to add to your Mojito Recipe Files – a Dark Mojito. It’s truly just a slight variation of The Perfect Mojito and a Dirty Mojito and in our opinion, tastes the rummiest of the three!
Get the recipe here: Dark Mojito

#7

The recipe for an authentic Caribbean Rum Punch is:
1 of sour
2 of sweet
3 of strong
4 of weak
What are the ingredients?
Check out the recipe here: Authentic Rum Punch

#6

A Caribbean delight featuring a delectable combination of rum, banana, coconut and chocolate…
Get the recipe here: Funky Monkey

#5

We knew we’d like the taste of this tropical concoction when we heard it contained 3 different rums – oh, AND Kahlúa!
Find the recipe here: Bahama Mama

#4

A favorite summer rum concoction at RT Headquarters! The recipe (and color!) seems to be a little different everywhere we’ve enjoyed one but here’s the recipe we use!
Frozen Rum Runners

#3

We’re not surprised that this one is on the list, but we’re perhaps a little surprised that it was only #3! The Painkiller has become one of the best known Caribbean rum drinks of all time (well, behind the Piña Colada, of course). Easy to make and will remind you of your favorite beach vacation…
Find the recipe here: Painkiller

#2

A little different than the Authentic Caribbean Rum Punch in that you use any delicious fruit juice available until you find your perfect combination!
Find the recipe here: Caribbean Rum Punch

#1

And the number one Rum Recipe this year? The Frozen Bushwacker! With Coconut Rum, Bailey’s, Kahlua, Amaretto and chocolate, these taste like an adult milkshake, but watch out – they pack a punch!
Find the Bushwacker recipe here!

It’s been a great year! Cheers to 2020 and many more rum recipes!

Barhopping on Jost Van Dyke, Part 2 (after Irma)

#3

A visit to the Callwood Rum Distillery on Tortola is like taking a walk back in time. This distillery has been producing rum for over 200 years! Although Cane Garden Bay was hit hard by the hurricanes of 2017, Callwood Rum Distillery is open again and well worth a visit! Find out more here:
Callwood Rum Distillery, Tortola

#2

I’ve never been a big fan of sharks – it’s just those teeth! But, swimming with the nurse sharks in Exuma was…cool. I’d even do it again! Read about the experience here:

Two Tickets to Paradise – Best Holiday Gift Ever?


I don’t know about you, but finding two tickets to paradise in my stocking would probably be the best holiday gift ever! Do you need help putting together the perfect tropical vacation for someone on your “nice list” this year? We can help! 

Antigua

We’ve been working on this for some time, but now we’re ready to let everyone know. Rum Therapy has added a new component – Rum Therapy Vacations! We’ve been making recommendations on accommodations, locations, cruises, islands, areas of interest and things to see & do based on our travels since our inception in 2010, and are now able to help you get there! We specialize in travel to the islands of the Caribbean, Bahamas, Hawaii and Mexico as we’ve traveled extensively to these areas, and hope to add Tahiti and the South Pacific to the mix soon.

Paradise Island, Bahamas

Who could take advantage of our services? Anyone who wants to vacation in paradise, but just doesn’t know which area would be best, what type of accommodations are available, whether to cruise and which cruise line would suit them best, or those individuals that are too busy to spend hours searching the internet for deals and would simply like to have someone make all of the arrangements so that they can just pack and go…

Most services booked through us (such as booking a cruise, all-inclusive or luxury resort) don’t cost you a penny more than booking through an online search engine, yet you will be provided with personalized service (we’ll search for the very best rates and packages for you), personal care during the trip (we’re here to help in case something isn’t quite right when you get there) and sometimes perks such as upgrades! Additional services, such as putting together a complex package (including transfers, excursions, multiple legs, etc.) are available for a small fee to cover the time to coordinate it. We will always be up front if there may be an additional fee.

What services do we offer? We can help you put together a vacation to a resort that you’ve been dreaming of, from an all-inclusive to a private island luxury resort. Thinking of cruising? We can help you decide what type of cruise line would be right for you and assist in choosing an exciting itinerary.

Want to put together a trip for a group of people or a family reunion? Let us take care of the details so you can just relax and enjoy. And – we will include a list of Rum Therapy recommendations of things to see and do in the area(s) you will be traveling to including great beaches, attractions, local rums or rum drinks and places to explore!

Floyd’s Pelican Bar, Jamaica

How do you gt started? Email us at [email protected] and let us know the following:
1. Name
2. Phone number and best time to call
3. Email address

3. Travel dates or range, if flexible
4. Type of vacation, ie., cruise, all-inclusive, luxury resort, group travel
5. Where you would like to travel
6. Approximate price range per person
7. Anything else we should know. The more info you can provide, the more we can tailor a package to suit your needs!

Once we receive your information, we will put together some information and give you a call you to chat about the different possibilities.

Ready to put 2 tickets to paradise in someone’s stocking (or your own)? Use our expertise to arrange your next tropical vacation by emailing us at [email protected] today!

Rum Therapy’s Top 10 Rum Recipe Posts of 2015

We recently posted the Rum Therapy Top 10 Island Posts of 2015, and are following up with the top rum recipe posts of the year. As with the top island posts, we never know which recipes will make the top visited posts of the year and there are always a few that surprises.

Here are the 10 most visited Rum Therapy Rum Recipe Posts of 2015, starting at the bottom and working up to #1. Which recipes have you tried?

10. Nilla Killa

Nilla-Killa-copyright Rum Therapy
The Nilla Killa brings back good memories for us. During our first trip to White Bay, JVD and the Soggy Dollar, as we jumped in the water to swim ashore, our captain told us to be sure and sample a Nilla Killa, which of course, we did. Apparently others have enjoyed a Soggy Dollar Nilla Killa, making this recipe one of the top visited recipes of the year.
Get the Nilla Killa Recipe here.

9. Banana Daiquiri

Banana-Daiquiri copyright Rum Therapy
Can’t beat the taste of this delectable Caribbean rum cocktail and we’ve had the pleasure of sampling a few good ones, including the extremely tasty ones served at Saba Rock Resort in the BVI. Find the recipe here:
Banana Daiquiri

8. Miami Vice

Miami-Vice-copyright Rum Therapy

 How can you beat the taste of a Strawberry Daiquiri intertwined with a Piña Colada? Exactly. Probably why the Miami Vice recipe was one of the top visited of the year. Find the recipe here:
Miami Vice

7. Lime in de Coconut

Lime-in-de-coconut-copyright Rum Therapy
This frozen concoction screams tropical umbrella drink, in or out of a coconut! Find the recipe here:
Lime in de Coconut

6. Dirty Banana

Dirty-Banana copyright Rum Therapy
The flavor of fresh banana mingled with dark rum and coffee flavored liqueur will remain etched in your mind, long after your Jamaican vacation! Recipe here:
Dirty Banana

5. Bushwacker

Bushwacker-copyright Rum Therapy

Bushwackers’s. Delicious. We sampled our first Bushwacker atop Paradise Point in St. Thomas many, many years ago and were pretty much hooked. I mean, who wouldn’t be? Chocolate, rum and the amazing overlook of Charlotte Amalie – wow, paradise. Apparently others are hooked too…Find the recipe here:
Bushwacker

4. Frozen Rum Runners

Rum-Runners-copyright Rum Therapy
Yes, we love Rum Runners and the best one we’ve ever had was actually in the very non-tropical (but gorgeous!) South Lake Tahoe, California on the beach at The Beacon. We haven’t been able to exactly replicate the taste of the Rum Runners at the Beacon, but this recipe is delicious non-the-less:
Frozen Rum Runner

3. Bahama Mama

Bahama-Mama - copyright Rum Therapy
Oh my goodness, this one packs a punch with 3 different rums and Kahlua, but my oh my – it tastes great. Find this popular tropical cocktail recipe here:
Bahama Mama

2. Painkiller

Painkillers-copyright Rum Therapy
The fact that the Painkiller made the list is no surprise, really. This delicious tropical rum delight can be found in nearly every restaurant and bar in the Virgin Islands – and other regions as well. It’s easy to make and the taste will surely remind you of relaxing in the sun and sand on your favorite island…Recipe here:
Painkiller

And the number one most searched recipe on our site for 2015?

#1 – Caribbean Rum Punch!

Caribbean-Rum-Punch copyright Rum Therapy
Caribbean Rum Punch differentiates itself from an “Authentic Rum Punch” in that a variety of fresh fruit juices can be used, creating tastes that can vary immensely depending on the combination. The recipe calls for orange and pineapple juice, but why not try mango or papaya for a completely different taste? Find the basic recipe here:
Caribbean Rum Punch

Rum Therapy’s Top 10 Island Posts of 2015

With the end of 2015 fast approaching, we thought we’d find out which island posts were the most visited and compile our annual list of  Top 10 Island Posts of the Year. As in years past, some of the posts that made the list are a little surprising, while others are, well, rather expected. Some were written this year, and some have been around for a few years. At any rate, if you happened to miss any of them when they were published, now’s your chance to check them out. We’ll start with 10 and make our way to #1.

10.  Staniel Cay Yacht Club, Exuma Cays, Bahamas

SCYC copyright Rum Therapy
On Jimmy Buffett’s list of “10 great places for a Waterside Drink”, the Staniel Cay Yacht Club is a great place for just that, and a whole lot more…
Find out what’s so special about SCYC from our visit this year.
Staniel Cay Yacht Club, Exuma Cays


9. Coco Beach Bar & Grill, Treasure Cay, Bahamas

Treasure-Cay-copyright Rum Therapy
In 2015 we made our first trip to The Abacos, a chain of islands in the Bahamas located just 175 miles east of Palm Beach, Florida. We were stunned by the gorgeous beaches and enjoyed some time at a few unique beach bars; one of which was Coco Beach Bar & Grill located on beautiful Treasure Cay Beach. See more about this laid back beach bar and the views you can enjoy while sipping a cold rum punch here:
Coco Beach Bar & Grill, Treasure Cay, Bahamas


8. Angels Rest, St. John

Angel's-Rest copyright Rum Therapy
Although we swam out to visit Capt. Peter in his floating bar by the name of Angels Rest during a visit to St. John in 2014, the post continues to get a lot of views. Why wouldn’t it? Visiting Angels Rest was definitely one of the highlights of that trip! Find out more about Capt. Peter and Angels Rest here:
Angels Rest, St. John


7. The Fight Against the Bite

Fight-Against-the-bite - copyright Rum Therapy
Apparently we aren’t the only mosquito magnets out there. A post we wrote in 2013 on protecting yourself from bug bites while on vacation still gets a lot of visits. Even if you’re not a “high attractor” type, you might find the information in this post interesting:
The Fight Against the Bite

6. Bomba Surfside Shack, Tortola

Bomba-Shack copyright Rum Therapy
This one was a surprise. For several years in a row, the post on our Bomba Shack visits made the Top 10 list. We’ve had the chance to visit the Bomba Shack during the day when it’s quiet and when you can sit and enjoy the view across Cappoons Bay to Jost Van Dyke, and we’ve also had the chance to check out a famous Bomba Shack Full Moon Party where, for research purposes of course, we sampled a bit of the mushroom tea. Always an adventure, find out more about the Bomba Shack here:
Bomba Surfside Shack, Tortola

5. Barhopping on Jost Van Dyke

Barhopping Jost Van Dyke - copyright Rum Therapy
Although a few things have changed a bit since we first posted this article, Barhopping on Jost Van Dyke continues to be a very popular post. Probably because it’s a favorite destination for many of our readers! There’s a big change coming to White Bay in January with the addition of a new bar called Hendo’s Hideout. Check out a list of other bars you can visit while visiting Jost Van Dyke here:
Barhopping on Jost Van Dyke

4. Callwood Rum Distillery, Tortola

Callwood-Distillery-copyright Rum Therapy
Want to experience a slice of Tortola history dating back as much as possibly 400 years? Then be sure to visit the Callwood Rum Distillery in Cane Garden Bay while visiting Tortola, British Virgin Islands. Check out our post to see more photos and find out about the rum they make there, including the infamous Panty Remover…
Callwood, Rum Distillery, Tortola

3. Compass Cay, Exuma and its One Full Time Resident

Compass-Cay-2-copyright Rum Therapy
Our entire visit to the Exuma Cays was filled with amazing sites and water as clear as a swimming pool. Compass Cay is a small cay in the chain where you can swim with pet nurse sharks and enjoy an incredible quiet beach called Crescent Beach. Apparently you enjoyed looking at the gorgeous hues of blue found around Compass Cay and learning the story of the only person that resides there full time too, as it was the 3rd most visited post of the year. Read more about it here:
Compass Cay and its One Full Time Resident


2. Health Benefits of Spending Time in or Near the Ocean

Crescent-Beach copyright Rum Therapy
This was an eye-opening post to research and put together as we have always felt that spending time in the sea has been therapeutic for us. As it turns out, there is some scientific evidence to support that theory. Find out more here:
The Health Benefits of Spending Time in or Near the Ocean


1. The Ultimate Rum Therapy Playlist

Tobago Cays copyright Rum Therapy
And the most visited post of the year! The Ultimate Rum Therapy Playlist! It’s no surprise, this was a fun list compiled with suggestions from our beach loving readers. We continue to update it from time to time, so if you run across a song you think should be on it, be sure to let us know!
