- 4 oz light coconut milk
- 2 oz blueberry lime syrup (recipe follows)
- 2 oz coconut rum
- 2 oz light rum
- 2 oz pineapple juice
Fill 2 narrow highball glasses with crushed ice. Set aside.
In a cocktail shaker, combine all ingredients and add ice. Shake for 3-5 seconds or until chilled, then strain into serving glasses.
Garnish with blueberries on a cocktail pick, mint, and dried lime slices, if desired.
Use full fat coconut milk (or even half and half) for a creamier drink. To ensure you get a smooth, chunk free coconut milk that will work in this drink, pick up the can at the store and shake it - if you hear the coconut milk sloshing around freely, it should work well. If not, try a different brand. Chaokoh is a good brand for use in drinks.
