Ocean Blue Piña Colada – A Vibrant, Tropical Cocktail to Sip in Style


  • Author: Jessica
  • Total Time: 7 minutes

Ingredients

To make 1 large serving (or 2 small glasses):

  • 2 oz white rum (or coconut rum for extra tropical flavor)

  • 1 oz blue curaçao

  • 1 oz cream of coconut (like Coco López or Real Coco)

  • 2 oz pineapple juice (unsweetened preferred)

  • 1 oz coconut milk or heavy cream (optional, for extra creaminess)

  • 1 ½ cups ice (adjust based on blender power and preferred thickness)


Instructions

🌀 Step 1: Chill Your Glasses

Put your serving glass or tiki mug in the freezer while you blend. A chilled glass helps the frozen drink hold its texture longer.

🍹 Step 2: Blend the Cocktail

In your blender, add:

  • 2 oz white rum

  • 1 oz blue curaçao

  • 1 oz cream of coconut

  • 2 oz pineapple juice

  • (Optional) 1 oz coconut milk or heavy cream

  • 1½ cups ice

Blend until smooth and creamy. If too thick, add a splash of pineapple juice; if too thin, add more ice and blend again.

🌴 Step 3: Taste and Adjust

Take a quick taste. Too sweet? Add a squeeze of lime juice. Want it stronger? Splash in more rum.

🥥 Step 4: Pour and Garnish

Pour into your chilled glass. Garnish with:

  • A pineapple wedge on the rim

  • A maraschino cherry on top

  • A sprinkle of toasted coconut or edible glitter for flair

  • A cute cocktail umbrella for that tropical feel

Notes

✔️ Use high-quality cream of coconut for the best texture and flavor.
✔️ Don’t confuse coconut cream with coconut milk—the cream is thicker and sweeter.
✔️ Blue curaçao adds color and orange flavor. For a lighter drink, use just ½ oz.
