The Bushwacker cocktail, named after a bar patron's constant canine companion, originated in the 1970's in the Virgin Islands. It was brought stateside and continued rising in popularity at beach-side bars in Florida, eventually being bottled and sold at liquor stores.

I have deconstructed and re-imagined this delightful cocktail as a holiday ready espresso rumtini. Enjoy!
