Equipment

  • Cocktail Shaker
  • Jigger
  • 2 Cocktail Glasses

Ingredients

  • 4 oz Mango Nectar
  • 2 oz Coconut Rum
  • 1 ½ oz Pineapple Juice
  • 1 oz Triple Sec
  • 1 oz Lime Juice

Instructions

  • Add mango nectar, pineapple juice, coconut rum, triple sec, and lime juice to a cocktail shaker with ice.
  • Shake for 10 seconds, until cold, and pour into cocktail glasses.

Notes

Variations
  • Blend it up! Use frozen mango chunks and make this into a delicious frozen boozy drink. Add all of the ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth. If you don't have frozen mangoes, you can also pour mango nectar into ice cube trays to make mango ice cubes and blend those instead. Isn't it fun to get creative?!
  • Mocktail version! Omit the rum and triple sec, the drink is just as delicious without it! 
  • Use fresh mangoes instead of mango nectar. Add fresh mango to a blender with the remainder of the ingredients instead of mango nectar for a fresh take on this refreshing drink.
Tips for Making Cocktails
Want to look like a professional bartender at home? Follow these tips and tricks for the BEST drinks!
  • Quality Ingredients: Opt for high-quality ingredients when crafting cocktails. Freshly squeezed juices, premium spirits, and fresh herbs can make a significant difference in the taste and presentation of your drink. Don't be afraid to splurge on quality ingredients—it will elevate your cocktail to a whole new level.
  • Proper Measurements: Accurate measurements are crucial for consistent and balanced cocktails. Invest in a jigger or a set of measuring tools to ensure you're adding the right amount of each ingredient. Follow the recipe closely, especially when it comes to strong spirits and bitters, as they can overpower the drink if not properly measured.
  • Ice Matters: Ice is a crucial component of cocktails. It chills the drink, dilutes it slightly, and contributes to the overall balance. Use quality ice cubes that are free from impurities to avoid any off-flavors. Consider different types of ice, such as large cubes for slow-melting in spirit-forward drinks or crushed ice for tropical and refreshing cocktails.
Remember, cocktail-making is both an art and a science. Enjoy the process, have fun with it, and don't be afraid to push the boundaries of creativity. Cheers!
