Ingredients
These ingredients come together to form a powerhouse of flavor:
-
???? 1 oz coconut rum — creamy, tropical base spirit
-
???? 1 oz pineapple juice — sweet and tangy tropical flair
-
???? ½ oz fresh lime juice — sharp citrus brightness
-
❄️ 1 cup crushed ice — the chill factor that makes it a frozen delight
-
???? ¼ cup frozen mango or mixed tropical fruit — adds sweetness and body
-
???? Fresh mint leaves — optional garnish for aroma and color
-
???? Simple syrup or agave nectar (optional) — adjust sweetness to taste
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare your ingredients and equipment
Gather your coconut rum, pineapple juice, lime juice, frozen fruit, and crushed ice. Have a blender or cocktail shaker with ice ready.
Step 2: Blend the frozen ingredients
In a blender, combine the crushed ice, frozen fruit, pineapple juice, lime juice, coconut rum, and optional simple syrup. Blend until smooth and slushy.
Step 3: Taste and adjust sweetness
Check the balance. Add more simple syrup or agave if you prefer a sweeter shooter.
Step 4: Pour into shooter glasses
Fill 2-3 shooter glasses evenly with the blended frozen mixture.
Step 5: Garnish and serve immediately
Top each shooter with a small mint leaf or a thin slice of lime for a fresh touch. Serve immediately for best texture.
Notes
-
Use freshly squeezed lime juice for the best tartness and freshness.
-
If you don’t have a blender, you can shake all ingredients vigorously with crushed ice in a cocktail shaker and strain.
-
Keep frozen fruit frozen until just before blending to maintain the perfect icy texture.
