Method
Cocktail
Build and shake
Add 2 oz Malibu coconut rum, 3 oz pineapple juice, 1 oz cream of coconut, 0.5 oz fresh lime juice and about 1 cup of ice into a cocktail shaker.
Shake
Secure the shaker lid and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the shaker exterior is frosty and the ingredients are well combined, creating a slightly frothy texture from the cream of coconut.
Garnish & Finish
Thread a pineapple wedge and maraschino cherry on a cocktail pick and rest it on the rim of the glass. If using toasted coconut flakes, lightly toast 1 tsp coconut flakes in a dry skillet over medium heat for 1–2 minutes until golden, cool slightly, and sprinkle on top of the drink or rim the glass before pouring.
Serve immediately with a straw. Optional: Add a small paper umbrella for a tropical presentation.
