Snow Day Coconut Rum Cocktail (Stuck in the Snow!)
Stuck inside on a snow day? This frozen coconut rum cocktail is made with Malibu Rum, cream of coconut and a sweetened coconut rim — like a pina colada meets a snow day. Easy and delicious!
Blue Hawaiian
It is spring and I am stuck in a tropical drink grind. Every new cocktail that I think up is tropical in style. I guess I am hoping that one of these drinks takes me back to an island. Either way, today’s drink is awesome. It is heavy on pineapple and coconut like a pina…
