Bahama Mama, Take 2

So I decided to give the Bahama Mama another chance. I measured carefully. I used Kahlua instead of the homemade coffee liqueur. The only ingredient not precisely in the recipe was the Malibu + simple syrup instead of coconut liqueur, which I don't think is that much of a stretch.

Still, it's awful. Slightly less coffee-y than before, but the basic taste is the same. I think what I'm objecting to here is the lemon and Kahlua. It has the aftertaste of coffee that's been sitting in the carafe for too long. Acrid and dark.

Lemon + coffee = BAD.
