Cocktail

Method

Prepare Glass

  1. 1

    Rim (optional)

    If using a decorative rim, moisten the glass edge with a lime wedge, then dip the rim into a shallow plate with a mixture of edible gold flakes or fine sea salt. Set the glass in the freezer for 2–3 minutes to firm the rim while you prepare the cocktail.

Mix Cocktail

  1. 2

    Add the white rum, blue curaçao, fresh lime juice, coconut cream, pineapple juice, simple syrup, and Angostura bitters into a cocktail shaker.

  2. 3

    Fill the shaker with about 1 cup of ice, seal, and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the shaker is cold to the touch and the ingredients are well combined.

  3. 4

    Fill the prepared glass with crushed ice to about 3/4 full.

  4. 5

    Strain the shaken mixture over the crushed ice using a Hawthorne or fine strainer to catch ice shards and ensure a smooth pour.

  5. 6

    Give the drink a gentle stir once in the glass to settle the layers and distribute flavors without over-diluting.

Garnish & Serve

  1. 7

    Garnish the cocktail with a lime wheel on the rim, a candied pineapple wedge on a pick, and a small mint sprig tucked into the top of the crushed ice for aroma and visual appeal.

  2. 8

    Serve immediately with a straw. Advise guests to stir lightly as they sip to enjoy the full range of flavors.
