Instructions

Here’s how to whip up a glass (or a pitcher!) of Tropical Smurf Splash:

Step 1: Chill Your Glass

Start by placing your cocktail glass in the freezer for a few minutes or filling it with ice water while you prep. A frosted glass keeps your drink colder longer and looks great!

Step 2: Combine the Ingredients

In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, add:

2 oz coconut rum
1 oz blue curaçao
1 oz pineapple juice
1 oz mango nectar
1/2 oz freshly squeezed lime juice

Step 3: Shake It Up

Secure the shaker lid and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds. You want it ice-cold and perfectly mixed.

Step 4: Strain and Pour

Discard the ice from your chilled glass, and strain the vibrant blue mixture into the glass. Use a martini, hurricane, or rocks glass depending on your vibe.

Step 5: Garnish and Serve

Garnish with a fresh pineapple slice on the rim and a mint sprig tucked into the drink. For added flair, serve with a tropical straw or a cocktail umbrella.

Notes

This cocktail plays on the nostalgia of colorful childhood treats while bringing in adult flavors with real tropical depth. It’s also an excellent showcase of balance—sweet, tart, smooth, and fruity, with no one flavor overpowering the rest. The combination of coconut rum and mango nectar makes it taste like a beach vacation, while the lime keeps things crisp.
