The Island Life - Belize
Worth the Wait - St. George's Caye Resort
As a developing country of only about 383,071 people, Belize has been very careful to plan their reopening process, systematically, skillfully and safely. At St. George's, we are doing the same. We were chosen as one of the exclusive hoteliers to be able to take international travelers, and we are working to become Gold Standard Certified.
Although the opening of the international airport is scheduled for Aug 15, we believe it may take more time for Belize to be ready for tourists. We pride ourselves in understanding our guest's experience from touchdown to take-off and with new processes and protocols, we want to understand how this all will impact our guest's experience. The owner of St. George's Caye Resort personally plans to travel to Belize as soon as US-based owners are given clearance to travel to the country, which they expect to be August 15.
So while we prepare for your arrival, we wanted to send you a sweet recipe to bring the taste of the island to you! Also, click here for incredible fare to pair your tropical beverage with!
We "cheers" to your next visit and wish you well in the meantime!
Dirty Banana
1/4 to 1/2 cup ice cubes
1 1/2 ounces (1 standard shot) white rum
3/4 ounce (1/2 shot) Kahlua (or other coffee-flavored liqueur)
3/4 ounce (1/2 shot) banana-flavored liqueur
1 ounce (2 tablespoons) light cream
1 ounce (2 tablespoons) whole milk
1 ripe banana
Garnish: unpeeled banana slice
Directions
Gather the ingredients.
Put 1/4 cup to 1/2 cup of ice in the blender container. Add the remaining ingredients except for the garnish, cover, and blend until smooth, increasing the speed as necessary to thoroughly pulverize the ice. Pour the drink into a small hurricane glass, martini glass, or other cocktail glass. Cut a slit halfway through a banana wheel and hang it on the rim of the glass.
Serve and enjoy!
