In this case, it played a nice part in a spin on the Pina Colada. It played well\u00a0with the spiced rum to make the drink\u00a0a little more interesting than the old coconut cream and mildest-rum-available standby. All in all, I&#8217;d say the Spodee White makes a good addition to a tiki-style arsenal. It&#8217;s different, but familiar.\u00a0We tested this one out at a cocktail party, and it was a favorite of the night. Overall, I&#8217;d say the recipe was a solid one.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our Man in Havana 1 oz Spiced Rum 1 oz White Rum 2 oz Pineapple Juice 1 oz Spodee 1 tbsp Coconut Cream Pour\u00a0over crushed ice Shave nutmeg on top, garnish with mint NOTES: The folks over at Spodee sent us a bottle of their new white version to try out, so we thought we&#8217;d [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[141,142,14,124],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1729","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-coconut-cream","category-pineapple-juice","category-rum","category-spodee"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p1JYfz-rT","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.homespeakeasy.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1729","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.homespeakeasy.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.homespeakeasy.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.homespeakeasy.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.homespeakeasy.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1729"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.homespeakeasy.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1729\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1733,"href":"https:\/\/www.homespeakeasy.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1729\/revisions\/1733"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.homespeakeasy.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1729"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.homespeakeasy.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1729"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.homespeakeasy.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1729"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
