Dirty Pirate...

That’s rum and coke with a some Kahlua. While we’d love to take credit for this awesomely name cocktail, we can’t. 

Pirates, Coke and booze, argggg, does it get much better than this??.. I think not... And if you need a variation, replace the Kahlua with peach schnapps for a Dirty Pirate Hooker.

• 2 1/2 cups Coke
• 1/3 cup Captain Morgan Spiced Rum
• 1/3 cup Kahlua

Instructions:

1. Place all ingredients in a large glass and stir to combine. Pour mixture into popsicles mold. (plastic cups)
2. Freeze for about 2 hours or until mixture starts to solidify enough to hold a popsicle stick upright. Insert popsicle sticks and finish freezing popsicles overnight. To release popsicles run hot water on the outside of popsicle molds for a 2-3 seconds.

*Slightly flat Coke will produce a popsicle that stays frozen longer. To quickly and manually flatten out the carbonation, empty out enough Coke from a 2-liter bottle to leave a 3-inch space from top of bottle to top of coke. Place cap back on and shake vigorously for 10 seconds. Set aside to leave bubbles to subside.

Before your skeptical brow can arch upwards, let us say — yes, you can freeze liquor.
