Recipe Details

  • Prep Time: 4 Minutes

  • Servings: 1 Drink

  • Difficulty: Easy

Ingredients

  • 2 oz Premium White Rum

  • 2 oz Pineapple juice

  • 1 oz Coconut cream (not milk)

  • 1 oz Passion fruit syrup or puree

  • Crushed ice

  • GND Pineapple Half Slices for garnish

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Combine: In a cocktail shaker, pour in the white rum, pineapple juice, coconut cream, and passion fruit syrup.

  2. Shake Hard: Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously. You need to shake hard to fully emulsify the thick coconut cream with the other liquids!

  3. Strain: Strain the frothy mixture into a large glass completely filled with crushed ice.

  4. Garnish: Tuck a stunning dehydrated pineapple half-slice right into the ice for a professional Tiki-bar look.

💡 GND Pro-Tip: Fresh pineapple garnishes are messy and spoil quickly. Our dehydrated Pineapple Half Slices give your tropical drinks an instant, effortless "wow" factor, while slowly infusing a concentrated, caramelized pineapple essence into your cocktail. 👉 Shop GND Pineapple Half Slices
