I know I'll have my head handed to me for this, but The Tikiyaki Jungle Jetsetter was originally concocted with Malibu, and still tastes best that way.
I also like it in the LeiLani Volcano, which was the inspiration for the Jungle Jetsetter.
So,I'll be a blasphemer and say malibu.

I used to like Bacardi Coconut, then I switched to Cruzan. Recently I blind tasted 13 different coconut rums to find out which I liked best without benefit of bottle prejudice. The results were very illuminating! You can read the results here if you're so inclined.

Interesting research tofukolele, my next coconut rum will be Bacardi. I also liked how you had different recipes for the coconut rum. I know I don't use much of my Cruzan coconut rum because I don't know what to do with it. Thanks for all the info.

Does anyone know where they sell Cruzan coconut in San Diego? I have looked for it everywhere but I haven't found any yet.

He mea iki, Hiltiki! Since this was posted, I have heard from some folks in Florida that have tasted a coconut rum called Brinley Gold Coconut Rum from St. Kitts. Apparently it destroys the mainstream competition, but it enjoys limited distribution. I see that it's available at DrinkUpNY for $20 -- might have to order a bottle!
