Johnny Depp is having a good time in the Bahamas!

Depp, 61, spent time with bartender Ralph Zoilo at High Tide Cafe on Wednesday, August 28. Zoilo, who goes by the handle “killerbartender” on Instagram, shared a series of photos and videos from the actor’s visit, including a clip of Depp sipping on a drink the bartender apparently mixed for him and a photo of him holding up a drink behind the bar while Zoilo poses next to him with money in his hands.

“I know why the rum will be gone,” Depp says in a video, seemingly alluding to a famous line from his pirates of the Caribbean character, Jack Sparrow. “It’s not gone yet, I know that. But I know how to make it go away.”

“Bad rum – you really need to copyright that immediately,” the actor added as he and the bartender hugged.
