Guinness-1-5
Hey all, welcome to my corner of the web!  Be sure to follow me on Instagram and Facebook!

The first time that I’ve had this Jamaican Guinness Punch, it was made by my father-in-law.  My husband and I were visiting him and his Trinidadian wife in Florida for the week, and they ensured that our bellies were never empty.   We feasted on traditional Jamaican and Trinidadian dishes, which were some of the best that we’ve ever had.

From roti and shrimp curry with curry mango to perfect Jamaican fried dumplings with ackee and saltfish; we were in heaven!   My father-in-law is a culinary master and he made sure to show off his skills during our visit.  One night he whipped up a batch of Guinness Punch.  I was hesitant since I absolutely will not drink stouts, but decided to give it a try and was pleasantly surprised.
