I don’t know if this drink has another name – no bartender I have polled seems to know of one. My dear friend Lynda turned me on to this concoction, so I named it for her. It is our favorite summertime cocktail.

notes
Not all coconut rum is created equal. Some have an off flavor. I feel Captain Morgan’s Parrot Bay is the best, providing a true coconut flavor.
