Method
Gather Ingredients: Start by assembling all your ingredients and equipment. Having everything at hand makes the process smoother.
Fill the Shaker: Add a handful of ice cubes to your cocktail shaker. The ice will chill your drink and keep it refreshing.
Measure and Pour:
Using a jigger, measure 2 oz of coconut rum and pour it into the shaker.
Next, add 1 oz of peach schnapps, followed by 2 oz of pineapple juice, and finally, 2 oz of cranberry juice.
Shake It Up: Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds. This blends the flavors and chills the drink.
Serve: Fill your glass with ice cubes if desired, then strain the cocktail mixture into the glass.
Garnish: Top off with fresh mint leaves for an aromatic touch and a splash of color.
Enjoy: Sip and enjoy your Caribbean Breeze!
Variations
Non-Alcoholic Version: Replace the rum and schnapps with coconut-flavored sparkling water or soda and keep the juices. You’ll still enjoy a deliciously fruity drink without the alcohol.
Dietary Modifications:
For a lower-calorie option, use sugar-free mixers or reduce the amount of juice.
If you’re watching your sugar intake, opt for unsweetened cranberry juice and use a lower-sugar rum alternative.
