If you are adding actual rum, add it just before serving.Īnd thanks to the The Wilderness Resort in Wisconsin Dells and their consideration for all the adults in tow (via lazy rivers, swim up bars and Miami Vice drinks), I have acquired a whole new appreciation for water parks, so much so that we're even planning on going back this summer! And although many years have passed since that traumatic experience, I'll still be sticking to the swim up bars, lazy rivers and Miami Vices, while my independent kids enjoy all the joy the water slides bring to their lives. You'll want to keep the Pina colada part and the strawberry daiquiri separate so that when you put it together, it looks like the photo! I also store the leftovers the same way. You can make this drink in advance and simply store it in juice jugs in the freezer (that's what I do). And from that day forward, I have not enjoyed water parks in the same way. But most importantly, there was psychological injury (aka water slide hatred). Although we only suffered very minor injuries, there was a lot of snot, tears and even some blood. I will never forget the moment the extremely large woman crashed into us, sending us spiraling out of control down the remainder of the tube. And that was the end of my love affair with water slides. And after several minutes of panic and mad paddling, I saw an enormous shape careening towards us. One of our activities was a trip to a water park, which ended with me and one of these poor young people grinding to a halt in the middle of a slide for some reason, there wasn't enough water coming down the slide to propel us forward.
But that's exactly what happens when you get stuck in a water slide 🍁Canada Day DrinkĪlthough my kids are are growing up too fast, they aren't quite grown up enough for alcohol. And even better, I didn't have to go down any water slides like I did when they were little! Did I mention I hate water slides? It's funny that someone who could spend every spare minute at a water park in their teens would end up hating them so much. And because we were at a water park in a private resort, our kids were old enough that they could go off on their own and periodically check back in with us. However painful it is when your kids are no longer little, the silver lining is that they become more independent. But for some reason, maybe because the vacation brain was in charge, I wanted whatever colorful, decadent, slushy beverage that guy was indulging in- the Miami Vice. And if I think a place will have bad wine, then I will simply order a beer (preferably a craft beer). I'm not much of a cocktail girl wine is my go-to drink. A few of those glorious, cool, refreshing drinks later, I found out what it was called -"A Miami Vice drink." And it was absolutely heavenly! I decided that when I got home I was going to make a Miami Vice Mocktail so my kids could also enjoy all the deliciousness that is this glorious combo of Pina colada and Strawberry daiquiri! But the really great thing about this drink is that it can be made with or without alcohol (rum)! Jump to: I never imagined going to a water park could be soo much fun, especially after my traumatic experience years ago. But unfortunately my Weight Watchers conscience kicked in, adding, 'but if you have it in a smaller size.' Damn that do-gooder voice!
I'd never said that in my life and wow did it feel good! I was on vacation after all. "I'll have what he's having," I replied to the bartender, pointing towards the enormous, decadent red and white slushy drink in the guy's hand.
