This is DELICIOUS!! I bought A&W Zero this week and was wondering what I can mix with it. Always have coconut rum and 1/2 and 1/2 on hand anyway.
LOL! You and my sister have the same mindset in doing some substitute ingredients. Maybe, I guess but it would be better to have some research on that. If you try that, how does it taste?
This seriously sounds amazing! I am going to buy coconut rum & root beer just to make this. ;)
Thanks, Carrie! I bought the ingredients just for this too and thought it was very worth it :)
I can’t help but be just a little embarrassed that I once again have all of the ingredients on hand. Seems we have similar pantries or tastes or something.
Saw WC facebook page before seeing the blog post and was concerned you’d be looking for cynar. o-: Am off to make a nutty coconut drink. My inlaws will be here for the weekend in three short hours and I should really start drinking now ;-)
I do think we have similar tastes for sure, but now I know that you actually didn’t have all the ingredients. Subbing in orange soda for the root beer was very clever, my friend.
We’re going to visit our in-laws next week!
Wow, this looks so delicious and am pinning to try. Thank you so much for sharing and have a great weekend, too!! :)
Thanks so much, Janine! Have a good weekend :)
