It is spring and I am stuck in a tropical drink grind. Â Every new cocktail that I think up is tropical in style. Â I guess I am hoping that one of these drinks takes me back to an island. Â Either way, today’s drink is awesome. Â It is heavy on pineapple and coconut like a pina colada, but with a nice blue flair.
Blue Hawaiian
- 1 oz. Light Rum
- 2 oz. Pineapple Juice
- 1 oz. Blue Curacao
- 1 oz. Coconut flavored Rum or Creme de Coconut
- 1/2 oz. Simple Syrup
On the Rocks
This cocktail can be made on the rocks or blended. Â I prefer it on the rocks. Â Mix all of the ingredients in a nice glass filled with ice.
Garnish with a mini-parasol, pineapple and a cherry.
Frozen
Mix all of the ingredients in a blender with 1 cup of ice. Â Blend until smooth and then pour into a nice tall glass.
Garnish with a mini-parasol, pineapple and a cherry.
A great drink with the flavor of the islands. Â You can’t go wrong with this one.
Hurrah for colorful drinks! I like mine blended 🙂
This reminds me of a "hunch punch" style drink that we did with grain alcohol, blue curacao, lemonade and oranges called Blue Whales. Boy those were the days!
Chris, I like your name better. Might have to change the name to Hunch Punch.
I remember when I bought my Party Bullet so I could make drinks like this whenever I wanted. Unfortunately, the novelty wore off. This recipe, however, makes me want to bring it out again.
