What is a Mudslide?

The mudslide cocktail seems to have originated at a Caribbean bar called Wreck Bar back in the 1970’s. The original cocktail is made with vodka, Baileys Irish Cream and Kahlua. Our version is a spin on the Mexican Mudslide which is made with dark rum in place of the vodka and it’s actually even more delicious!
