If you have memories of Malibu, the coconut flavored rum, it may well be from ill-advised shots with buddies at late-night bars. But there’s more that you can do with coconut flavors than just drinking it neat or mixing it with coke. If you fancy a throwback to your wilder days paired with a fun Halloween themed treat, then we have four cocktail recipes demonstrating different uses for coconut rum.
You’ll find simple mixes of lemonade and grenadine, as well as a frozen rose slushie that sounds like it would be a hit at any party. Or if you’re feeling the need for some tropical vibes as the weather gets colder, try the ever popular piña colada-themed combo of pineapple and coconut, or the fruity bay breeze which combines sweet rum and pineapple juice with the tart sharpness of cranberry juice.
