Judging from the food, festivals, clubbing and everything else Miami has to offer, it’s safe to say the city likes over-the-top experiences. Take these five drinks, for example—not one is your average cocktail.  1. The PaletaRita at Coyo Taco The PaletaRita is one of many delights at Coyo Taco’s secret bar, just a step beyond the small dining area and past the bathrooms. The drink is made with one of Coyo’s fresh paletas (fresh-fruit ices, traditionally made with all-natural ingredients). The corners are cut off the paletas and mixed into the drink, and the rest of the ice pop is placed inside the margarita. Coyo partner Anna Robbins got the idea when experimenting at the bar. “You can use fresh fruit, which can go bad very quickly, or you can buy these frozen purées,” Robbins says. “So I used locally made paletas in the drinks.” The PaletaRita comes in fun, refreshing flavors such as cocopassion (cocoa tequila and a passion fruit paleta) and chili cucumber rimmed with chili salt. 2. Bermuda Bomb at Shots Miami Served in a glass bowl, the Bermuda Bomb provides a good time and mesmerizing sight. Made with sour mix, a melon liqueur shot, Bacardi Limon Rum, Bacardi Coconut Rum, Bacardi 151 Rum and, to heat things up, fire. Ask the bartender for step-by-step instructions on how to handle the fire properly, things could get pretty dangerous if you don’t.  3.
