→ Cocktail
01 -
1 to 1.5 cups crushed ice
02 -
1.5 ounces Malibu coconut rum
03 -
1 ounce 100% pineapple juice
04 -
0.5 ounce blue curacao liqueur

# Steps to Cook:
01 -
Fill a 15-ounce daiquiri or hurricane glass about three-quarters full with crushed ice, approximately 1 to 1.5 cups.
02 -
In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine Malibu coconut rum, pineapple juice, and blue curacao. Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 15 to 20 seconds until well chilled and integrated.
03 -
Using a strainer, pour the shaken mixture into the prepared ice-filled glass to ensure a smooth texture by removing ice shards.
04 -
Slowly pour lemon-lime soda over the drink to create a foamy layer resembling ocean waves.
05 -
Add a straw and optional cocktail umbrella for presentation. Serve immediately to enjoy the vibrant flavors.
# Extra Suggestions:
01 -
Use 100% pure pineapple juice instead of pineapple juice cocktail for a more authentic flavor.
02 -
Add lemon-lime soda after shaking to prevent excessive foaming.
03 -
Straining after shaking ensures a smoother drink texture.
04 -
Shaking ingredients yields better mixing, though building in the glass is possible.
