Now inspiring active bodies and minds in Africa

NOVEMBER 19, 2007

Dreaming of Africa?

It used to take a sabbatical and enough supplies to last a year to forge into "the great unknown" of Africa. But with daily flights from the U.S. and a newly developed tourism infrastructure, Africa today is more accessible than ever. Southern Africa offers the absolute best of all worlds: easy access and true adventure away from maddening crowds, remote, unspoiled wilderness, an astounding diversity of habitats and unique and personal wildlife encounters. Sound appealing? Click here to start making your Africa dream a reality.

From the Bush: Ausin-Lehman Adventures Featured Recipe

There's a reason why our guests rave about our food. Whether served campfire-side or at a 5-star restaurant, our artfully prepared local eats are sinfully delicious! This week we are featuring a safari cocktail.

Local Bites: Swinging Safari Cocktail
Trip: South Africa Safari & Multisport Adventure

On the wide-open plains of Africa grows a tree uncultivated by man. Scientists call it "Sclerocarrya birrea," but it's more commonly known as the Marula tree. The tree only grows in one area on the entire planet: the warm, frost-free regions of subequatorial Africa. It's from the fruit of this mystical tree that Amarula Cream liqueur is born.

Method:

Pour all ingredients into cocktail shaker. Shake and strain into a tall glass. Sip over a bonfire after a day in the bush, telling stories of the day's adventures.
