We used to sit in hammocks watching the sun set over the Caribbean sea drinking it, hence the name . it is truly a wonderful drink :) I have been drinking this for years, I picked it up in st Lucia, its called a “sundowner” i was first introduced to it by a German chap, cant remember his name.

I barely remember our night at the Top of the Mart. I remember, though, that it became Club 360 once the chi-chi bar closed.

Not to ruin Jesse's perfectly good story about how we created the "Swift Kick in the Rear," but I am sure that our friend Rebekah will agree that the actual recipe for the drink was concocted in the kitchen of the last apartment Jesse and I lived in in New Orleans. That probably would have been 2002 or 2003 and I can't remember if Greg (the namer of the drink) was there, but I'm sure he was. Also, I think we were actually using yellow grapefruit juice, but experimented with adding maraschino cherry juice (in addition to the cherry); that idea was nixed as it made the drink too sweet. Note to those who want to try this drink: it really does have a lot of alcohol in it that you don't taste (a la Long Island Iced Tea), so please consume responsibly. Also, this drink is usually served in a highball glass. Enjoy! Top of the Mart was the name of the NOLA WTC bar.
