"Drinks with bourbon are becoming more and more popular," said bartender Dean Taomina. "The liquor really warms you as it goes down."
Fun fact: The Triple Eight distillery produces their own gin, vodka, rum, and bourbon from a factory on Nantucket.
Bottom line: While the drink's tropical colors may remind you of the Caribbean, this drink is best suited for a cold winter day.
