Piña Colada: The essence of the Caribbean
An iconic tropical cocktail, the Piña Colada is a delicious blend of rum, coconut cream, and pineapple juice. Smooth, creamy, and refreshing, it is perfect for fully enjoying the Dominican beach atmosphere.
During our excursion to Saona Island, you can get a Piña Colada served directly in a fresh pineapple, an experience not to be missed in front of the turquoise waters.
Dominican rum: A national treasure
Renowned for its high-quality rum, the Dominican Republic produces some of the world’s best-known brands, including Brugal, Barceló, and Bermúdez. This rum, aged using a unique expertise, can be enjoyed both neat and in cocktails.
Whether it’s white, golden, or aged rum, each variety offers a different tasting experience, perfect for discovering the richness of Dominican spirits. After a buggy excursion through the Dominican landscapes, nothing beats a good glass of rum to relax and extend the adventure!
Coconut water: A natural and refreshing hydration
Served directly in its freshly cut shell, coconut water is a natural, refreshing drink rich in electrolytes. Ideal after a sunny day, it provides immediate freshness.
On Saona Island, you will have the opportunity to buy a fresh coconut and enjoy it while admiring the paradise-like scenery.
Tropical fruit juices: A vitamin-packed refreshment
Thanks to its ideal climate, the Dominican Republic is full of tropical fruits with incomparable flavors. Local markets and restaurants offer a wide variety of fresh juices made from mango, guava, papaya, pineapple, or passion fruit.
Naturally sweet and refreshing, these juices are an excellent alternative to enjoy the benefits of the country’s exotic fruits.
Mamajuana: The Dominican elixir
A traditional drink par excellence, Mamajuana is a unique blend of rum, red wine, honey, and infused tree bark. Appreciated for its woody and spicy taste, it is often considered a natural remedy and sometimes even an aphrodisiac.
During our tours with Tropical Évasion, you will learn everything about this traditional drink and can even take a bottle home as a souvenir.
Presidente Beer: The ultimate refreshing drink
Light and refreshing, Presidente Beer is a true institution in the Dominican Republic. Served very cold, it is perfect for cooling down after a sunny day.
