Servings: 1 serving
Calories: 174kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup ice
- 1½ ounces 100% pineapple juice (Dole)
- 1½ ounces Malibu coconut rum
- 1½ ounces lite (50% less sugar) cranberry juice cocktail (Ocean Spray)
- Garnish with a slice of lime
Instructions
- Fill a 10-ounce beverage glass with ice (approximately 1 cup).
- Slowly add the pineapple juice to the ice-filled glass, followed by the Malibu coconut rum.
- Place a small spoon, flipped upside down, into the glass at an angle just above the coconut rum. Slowly pour the lite cranberry juice onto the center of the upside-down spoon, allowing the cranberry juice to layer on top of the pineapple juice and Malibu coconut rum. The spoon helps to disperse the liquid so that it does not mix with the other liquids as much.
- Garnish your glass with a slice of lime on the rim of the glass.
Notes
Storage:
- To Store: If you have leftovers in a pitcher, you can store them up to 1-2 days in the refrigerator.
- I really like to keep the mini cans of 100% pineapple juice in my refrigerator for use when making drinks such as this one. If I get the big cartons, they tend to go bad before I can use them up.
- Be sure to keep your ingredients in the refrigerator to keep cold until you are ready to make your Malibu Bay Breeze.
- I like to squeeze my lime slice into my drink before consuming it. I think that a little splash of tartness from the lime helps to cut the natural sweetness of this drink. This is not necessary but is tasty.
- You will want to serve this Malibu Bay Breeze while the layers are still separate. Before enjoying your drink, you will want to stir it with your straw or a cocktail spoon for the best flavor.
- You can make this a single-serve cocktail by just adding the juices and rum to a single tall glass with ice. Or make a pitcher for a crowd by mixing together equal parts of the ingredients.
