Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 4 oz. vodka
  • 2 oz. coconut rum
  • 2 oz. pineapple juice
  • 2 oz. coconut cream (see note)

For Garnishing

  • Simple syrup (for rimming glass, see note)
  • ¼ cup shredded coconut
  • Sliced pineapple

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Glass: Pour a small amount of simple syrup onto a shallow plate. On another plate, spread out the shredded coconut. Dip the rim of your martini glass into the simple syrup to moisten it, then dip it into the shredded coconut to coat the rim evenly. Set the glass aside.
  2. Mix the Cocktail: In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine the vodka, coconut rum, pineapple juice, and coconut cream. Shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until the mixture is well-chilled and slightly frothy.
  3. Strain and Serve: Strain the cocktail mixture into the prepared martini glass, making sure not to disturb the coconut rim.
  4. Garnish: Add a slice of fresh pineapple to the rim or float it on top of the cocktail for a beautiful and flavorful garnish.
  5. Enjoy: Serve immediately and enjoy your tropical Pineapple Coconut Martini!

Notes

  • Use canned coconut cream for the richest texture; if unavailable, substitute with thick coconut milk but expect a thinner consistency.
  • Simple syrup can be easily made by dissolving equal parts sugar and water over low heat until clear and cooled.
  • Adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of simple syrup or choosing a sweeter pineapple juice.
  • Chill the glass beforehand for an extra cold cocktail experience.
