Other than low-fat coconut milk, made this as written, and it made for a nice refreshing mid-day treat. It had a very nice kick to it too, and very much enjoyed. Made for I recommend tag.

Very tasty, although I would prefer it with less rum (no rum would be fine with me), made half a recipe, and omitted the ice. Made for the Bodacious Brickhouse Babes for ZWT5.

Great and refreshing. I halfed the recipe, just for me and my daughter. We are going to have this again this weekend as I will be making it for family members. Thank you, easy and good, can't get any better then that! Made by member of "Cooks With Dity Faces" for ZWT5 Zingo.

This was the perfect afternoon refreshment needed on a 90+ degree day!!! I made 1/4 of the recipe and don't like coconut so used 2% milk in its place, now wish I had made 1/2, and loved this yummy fruity cocktail!!! I did add a bit of whipped topping for garnish!! Thanks for sharing Sue!!! Made for zingo of ZWT 5.

Yum. A smoothie with a bit of kick and it's healthy, too. I prepared this exactly as written including the rum. The coconut milk was low fat. Made for Jammin' Java Jivers ZWT5.
