Transport yourself somewhere sunny and relaxing with this blue Hawaiian cocktail. Pineapple and coconut flavors come together in this refreshing and gorgeous drink.
I love tropical cocktails like Pina Coladas and pineapple margaritas. the No summer plans? No problem! This Blue Hawaiian Recipe will transport you straight to a place of pale white sand and softly crashing waves. It tastes like the tropics with delicious pineapple and coconut flavors. The blue color is also gorgeous! Doesn’t it look just like the blue waters of the ocean? So gorgeous!
Best of all there are only 3 ingredients(plus ice!), and no prep work involved! Easy breezy! Just how I like it. It can be prepared in under 5 minutes. This makes it perfect for relaxing after work or for enjoying a casual weekend dinner with friends.
Imagine their faces when you bring out this stunning drink. It is up to you to tell them our secret recipe. I firmly believe recipes are meant to be shared, but I won’t judge you one bit for wanting to keep this bad boy all to yourself!
This recipe only makes one drink, but it can easily be doubled, tripled, or made into a whole pitcher. You could also dump everything into a punch bowl for a beautiful party punch. May I suggest adding some Swedish Fish add to the ocean theme?
Typically this drink is served on the rocks. That is just a fancy way of saying with ice cubes.
I also like to garnish mine with a bit of fruit. It looks cute and reminds me of tropical vacations.
The blue Hawaiian was invented in the 1950s at the Hilton in Waikiki by Harry Yee to help sell more blue curacao.
Frozen: Instead, of adding ice at the end, combine all ingredients in a blender with ice. This leads to a thicker slushie-like concoction. Add more ice for a slushier cocktail, and less ice for a thinner drink.
Punch: Serve a crowd by using ½ bottle each of rum and blue curacao with around 2 cups of pineapple juice.
Non-Alcoholic: Use blue Gatorade, pineapple juice, and coconut extract. My Ocean Water is also a nonalcoholic blue drink to try.
