Malibu-based cocktails are super popular, especially in the spring and summer months. This particular one is not only visually stunning, it’s a great-tasting cocktail as well. It’s called Mermaid Water and it’s sure to be a big hit with whomever you are sharing it with or serving it to (including yourself!).
Try our Malibu Bay Breeze or just a simple Malibu and Coke if you love Malibu like I do!
Mermaid Water
This is a great drink to make for friends or family (or just for yourself) and is not only pretty but also delicious.
The combination of Malibu, Spiced Rum, Blue Curacao and Lime Juice along with the Pineapple Juice makes for a stunning greenish blue drink that has a coconut spice flavor that is to die for.
Other Great Cocktails
Fresh or Prepared Juice?
While using fresh juices is often recommended in most cocktail recipes, it’s often a lot more expensive as well. While I do recommend using fresh limes if you have them around, I also am not a fan of wasting ingredients and since I tend to make quite a few cocktails, I often have quite a bit of lime juice kicking around and using it rather than having it expire is always my preference.
Obviously, when it comes to pineapple, it’s far harder to make your own pineapple juice than to simply buy a bottle so I tend to go that route but if you prefer making your own, don’t let me stop you!
Garnish with a lime slice, and serve. I hope you like it!
Enjoy responsibly!
