History

Navy rum's broadside firepower balances sweet pineapple and coconut in this delicious Tiki-style libation.

Originating from the Soggy Dollar bar, located on the British Virgin Islands' island of Jost Van Dyke, this drink's namesake establishment is appropriately named because most patrons are sailors. With no dock available, guests frequently swim to shore, often using dollars that are still damp to pay for their beverages. This concoction represents a variation of the traditional Pina Colada.
