Traveler advice
Don't miss
Bushwhacker
Most bars along the Gulf Coast offer Bushwackers, but several of the establishments on this list offer them with a unique twist:
As a coffeehouse (rather than a bar), The Southern Grind offers a non-alcoholic version of the Bushwacker as a frappe, latte, or shake.
When you order your Bushwacker, the bartender will likely ask if you’d like a “floater.” Consider saying yes to this extra shot of dark rum (151 proof) floating on the top of your frozen boozy milkshake. You are on vacation, after all!
