Ingredients
1cupice
1½ouncespineapple juice,Dole
1½ouncesMalibu coconut rum
1½ouncescranberry juice,50% less sugar
1slicelime,garnish
Instructions
Fill a 10-ounce beverage glass with ice (approximately 1 cup).
Slowly add the pineapple juice to the ice-filled glass, followed by the Malibu coconut rum.
Place a small spoon, flipped upside down, into the glass at an angle just above the coconut rum. Slowly pour the lite cranberry juice onto the center of the upside-down spoon, allowing the cranberry juice to layer on top of the pineapple juice and Malibu coconut rum. The spoon helps to disperse the liquid so that it does not mix with the other liquids as much.
Garnish your glass with a slice of lime on the rim of the glass.
Notes
I like to keep the mini cans of 100% pineapple juice in my refrigerator for use when making drinks such as this one. If I get the big cartons, they tend to go bad before I can use them up.
Be sure to keep your ingredients in the refrigerator to keep them cold until you are ready to make your Malibu Bay breeze.
I like to squeeze my lime slice into my drink before consuming it. I think that a little splash of tartness from the lime helps to cut the natural sweetness of this drink. This is not necessary but is tasty.
You will want to serve this Malibu Bay breeze drink while the layers are still separate. Before enjoying your drink, you will want to stir it with your straw or a cocktail spoon for the best flavor.
