We made it… safe and sound and home. While I did indeed cook a great many dishes on the island, when we returned, we wanted to have a theme drink to serve our friends while we bored them with our stories and photographs.
Like this one…
See that beautiful color of the ocean. This photo was taken in “the Baths” in Virgin Gorda, of the British Virgin Isles. I just fell in love with the colors of the Caribbean waters, and wanted to recreate this color in a drink.So, I give you the “Colors of the Caribbean” Lemonade
Start with 1/2 a pitcher (about 5 cups) of your favorite Lemonade
Add 1 cup Blue Alize Liqueur (blue Alize is a French Cognac mixture with Passion Fruit, Cherries, Ginger and other exotic fruit juices.
Fill with ice
Garnish with Lemon Slices

And it is just that simple. So far, as long as we keep the drinks flowing, no one minds listening to our stories too much.
Dave here from MY YEAR ON THE GRILL. It really is just this easy!
… I CAN COOK THAT!
And so can you!
I dream of time in the Caribbean! The blues of the waters, the warm, soft air, the swaying palms. Ahhh!! The colors in the drink take us back. Nicely done!
So glad you two made it home safely. Nothing beats the water in the Caribbean! The lemonade sounds wonderful, sure you will have many evenings around the grill sharing your stories and partying with your friends now that you are back at home.
Welcome home Dave and Jackie!
Wow, awesome photos. Breathtaking ocean.
Great drink too.
Lovely post ♥
Excellent picture and the drink looks fantastic!!! I’d listen to your stories all day long too!
Looks like you nailed it.
Glad you guys are home safe and sound. This sounds perfect for these hot August nights we’re having here. I may add a little Neil Diamond.
