On the way home from our Navigator cruise, we had several hours in the Ft. Lauderdale airport so we check in to the Crown Room. I went up to the bar to get a Coke, and saw a big sign advertising Amarula Cream liqueur. It's made from the Marula tree in S. Africa, and the flavor looked tantalizing, so I had a glass. And then another one. I had one on the plane.
That stuff is GOOD!

I saw it advertised in the onboard magazine on Delta. That's one to try when we check in :D

Amarula has been the liqueur of choice in southern Africa for a long time - was surprised to see it marketed here. Delta has made it available in Crown Rooms and aboard aircraft. Mombo camp in Botswana has always provided a decanter of Amarula in the tents for a nightcap.

OH MY! I am so glad you got this vital information out to the ROARERs, pam & ted.
I will now have something ELSE to look forward to on my two nights in Mombo.

I checked at the liquor store close to my favorite grocery store, and they do carry it. They were out, and said that one guy regularly comes in and buys several bottles at a time, but at least they carry it. I haven't checked any other stores.

We found a liquor store near us that is supposed to carry it, so we're going to try and pick some up tomorrow.

Pam, can you compare it to any particular flavor? Always looking for something new to try.

Betty, it has hints of chocolate, vanilla, cinammon, and one ad says maybe some butterscotch. Think Bailey's, but it's better. I tried to see what it said on the website, but I can't find a description. I'll keep looking.

I found a store today that has it in pints; to us, that's better than buying a fifth. Of course, they only had one and now my mom wants one so I'll have to go back soon.
