First created in a T. I Friday’s restaurant in Busan, Korea, this cocktail has become a hit in bars around the world. June Bug is another name for the cotinis nitida beetle, a bug which inhabits the trees of hardwood forests. The June Bug cocktail was probably named for its brownish golden color which resembles that of the beetle. It also shares a soft, velvety texture with the creatures, whose bodies are covered in fine, silky hairs.
Ingredients:
2 ounces midori melon liqueur (melon liqueur)
1 1/2 ounces coconut rum (malibu is a fave!)
2 ounces pineapple juice
ice
Directions:
1. Shake ingredients together and pour into a glass.
2. (Shaking the ingredients creates a delicious fusion of flavors, but the drink can also be enjoyed by layering the ingredients and enjoying each one in its own right.).
