Review:
If you like Piña Coladas but are too embarrassed to order one then this drink is for you.
History:
Bahia is one of Brazil's 26 states. It is also a pre-Prohibition drink containing dry vermouth, sherry, absinthe and bitters. This more recent Piña Colada-style offering has more mass market appeal.
