Our melonball recipe
1 oz coconut rum
1 oz melon liqueur
2 oz unsweetened pineapple juice (vary amount to taste)
Pour over ice cubes in rocks glass.
... We don't like Malibu, as it's not strong enough; presently we have Bacardi Coconut, which works well. Our recipe book calls for regular vodka in place of the rum and 3 oz orange juice, but our version is much more "tropical" (and tastes better). This is the drink that makes summer a happy time.

I frequently make this with even parts of each, and have always heard it called an Alien Secretion, due no doubt to the color.
ReplyDeleteI also add an even part of vodka for a bit of extra kick :)
Y'know, I'm kinda glad Google did not enlighten me as to just what an Allen secretion is. I might've remembered it next time I sat down to drink one of these.
ReplyDeleteI used to add some vodka when making it w/ Malibu, but the full-strength rum works for me. It's not like you can drink just one!
