Pineapple

Roswell cocktail

An orangey cocktail in a martini glass

It’s hard to go wrong with Malibu coconut rum, unless you hate the flavor of coconut. The Roswell cocktail makes wonderful use of it, blending three ounces of the stuff with orange juice, cranberry juice and just a little bit of pineapple. Despite the strong alcohol content, the Roswell also has a lot of fruit ... Read the full article →

Kali Fury

Yellowish cocktail served in Collins glass

Despite the name, the Kali Fury is actually a rather soothing drink. It’s got plenty of pineapple and orange juice blended with coconut rum and creme de bananes. It’s your typical laid back tropical flavored drink. Enjoy a Kali Fury anytime you want a little liquor with your fruit juice instead of the other way ... Read the full article →

Caribbean Mist

caribbean-mist

The Caribbean Mist cocktail is one of those drinks that’s all about the flavor, except for the part that’s about the color.  It blends citrus, pineapple, lemon and coconut notes into a lovely blue-green liquid reminiscent of the Caribbean sea. I think of this one as a cross between your traditional tropical rum drink and ... Read the full article →

Hawaiian Hammer

Hawaiian Hammer served on the beach

The Hawaiian Hammer is one of those sneaky drinks that’s got a lot more kick than you’d think. It’s technically a double, with three ounces of alcohol, but because there’s twice as much fruit juice, it goes down smooth. This drink is a wonderful alternative to traditional tropical rum cocktails. Enjoy it the next time ... Read the full article →

Four Wheeler

Four Wheeler cocktail served with a straw

The Four Wheeler cocktail blends the flavors of coconut, orange, pineapple and dark rum. It’s thoroughly tropical in flavor, but this is definitely one drink you don’t have to serve in a pretty glass with umbrellas and fruit slices. It’s all about the taste. I think of this one as a wintertime alternative to a ... Read the full article →

Rampage

Rampage cocktail against white background with cherry and lemon garnish

I’m not sure how the Rampage cocktail got its name. It’s not likely to send you on a rampage. It can hardly go on a rampage by itself. Maybe it’s just the Captain Morgan’s spiced rum and its association with pirates that made somebody think of rampaging. In any case, the Rampage is a spiced ... Read the full article →

Haitian Gold

Haitian Gold cocktail against waterfront background

The Haitian Gold cocktail has so much fruit juice, you could almost mistake it for a health drink. It’s not, though. It’s just a lovely fruity, fairly strong cocktail that’s sweet enough to be a dessert drink. Enjoy a Haitian Gold anytime you’re craving a fruity drink with a kick. It’s great paired with salty ...

Quantum Theory

Quantum Theory cocktail against white background

I wonder where the Quantum Theory cocktail got its name. There’s nothing incomprehensible about this cocktail, and it’s not as mind-blowing as, say, the Zombie. My guess is that it’s the Strega. This is an interesting cocktail, blending sweet and sour citrus flavors with rum and orange liqueur by way of Strega herbal liqueur, which ... Read the full article →

Oh My God

The Oh My God cocktail, spotlit

The Oh My God cocktail is so named because that’s what one might tend to say after tasting it. It’s a pretty wonderful flavor, blending pineapple, peach and apple together. Like a particularly wonderful fruit salad, in liquid form with a kick. The pineapple juice makes Oh My God a sweet drink, but it’s not ... Read the full article →

Bahama Mama

A Bahama Mama against a white background

The Bahama Mama is an old classic. It blends flavors of pineapple juice, coconut and a touch of coffee with two types of rum. It’s less alcohol intensive than a lot of the classic rum punches, which is nice if you want something you can enjoy more than one of without falling out of your ... Read the full article →

Purple Pushover

Purple Pushover cocktail against purple background

The Purple Pushover is a mostly rum-based cocktail, with orange and pineapple juice, and  some very clear notes from a red raspberry liqueur and grenadine. The taste is fruity and sweet – more mellow than citrus. Mixing a Purple Pushover is interesting to watch, so this is a great drink to serve to guests you ... Read the full article →

Key Lime Martini

A green Key Lime Martini against a white background

A Key Lime Martini is just what it sounds like: a candy ‘tini that tastes like key lime pie. This is one seriously delicious cocktail, and it’s all about the flavor. Key lime is a transporting flavor that takes you away to the tropics the instant your tastebuds start to analyze it. Like the pie, ... Read the full article →

Cabo

Cabo cocktail with pineapple wheel and cherry

The Cabo Cocktail is one of those drinks that makes you feel as good as it tastes. Tequila is a fun spirit, and here it’s blended with pineapple juice and just a touch of lime. It’s very reminiscent of some tropical rum-based drink recipes, but the tequila makes for a nice break. The Cabo cocktail ... Read the full article →

Georgia Pie

Orange cocktail against gray background

With a name like Georgia Pie, you might expect this cocktail to contain Southern Comfort and taste peachy. And you’d be right. The Georgia Pie cocktail delivers the peachy flavor on two different levels: the Southern Comfort and the peach schnapps. Add to that some pineapple juice and just a touch of grenadine for color ...

Western Sling

Orange-ish cocktail by poolside with cherry, orange and straw

The Western Sling cocktail is an easy-going fruity drink featuring three ounces pineapple juice – and most of an ounce of simple syrup, too. But it’s not as sweet as it sounds, because there’s also lemon juice and gin. It’s a variation on the Singapore Sling, and like the Singapore, the alcohol in it can ... Read the full article →

Flying Kangaroo

Pale yellow creamy drink in cocktail glass with pineapple garnish.

I’m not sure where the Flying Kangaroo cocktail gets its name. No kangaroos are involved. There’s not quite enough alcohol in this drink to make you see flying kangaroos. Whatever the case, this is a really fun drink. It’s got the tropical feel of a Pina Colada with its coconut cream, rum and pineapple juice, ... Read the full article →

Garden Fresh

Green cocktail with blue umbrella.

The Garden Fresh cocktail is all about flavor and visual appeal. It gets a pretty green hue from the Midori (or whatever melon liqueur you like). The taste is wonderfully fruity, a mix of tart and sweet with grapefruit and pineapple juices leading the way. Next time you want a sipping drink – something to ... Read the full article →

Lady Killer

Reddish drink in a champagne flute against green background

The Lady Killer cocktail recipe is definitely one you can tinker with. Changing the ingredient ratios alters the flavor for personal taste without losing the overall charm of the drink. The primary taste comes from the blend of pineapple and passion fruit juices. With four ounces of fruit juice, the Lady Killer is – literally ... Read the full article →
