This creamy Bushwacker drink recipe combines rum, Kahlua, and creme de cacao for a frozen cocktail that tastes like a chocolate milkshake meets piña colada! Here are my expert tips for the perfect consistency every time.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ounces (1/4 cup) aged, white or dark rum*
  • 2 ounces Kahlua
  • 2 ounces creme de cacao (white or dark; we used white)
  • 2 ounces cream of coconut
  • 2 ounces 2% milk
  • 3 cups ice
  • For the garnish: Shaved chocolate or grated nutmeg, cocktail cherry (optional)

Instructions

  1. Add all ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth.
  2. Garnish with shaved chocolate or grated nutmeg, if desired. Add straws and serve. (You can stir with the straw when the drink starts to separate.)

Notes

*We like using aged rum in this drink, since it brings oak and vanilla undertones. But either white or dark rum work as well.
