Notes for the Malibu Sunset Cocktail:
I used Malibu rum with coconut liqueur for the alcohol. Fresh pineapple juice and yummy sweet grenadine syrup to make the sunset blend. Sweet alcoholic drinks like this one are VERY easy to drink WAY too fast. So be careful. This one can sneak up on you.

Instructions

November 2, 2018 at 9:44 pmGreat drink! Good combination of flavors. Can barley taste any liquor in it. I decided to use parrot bay coconut rum the second time, its a bit cheaper and quite bit stronger with the same flavors and got the same result and the drink still had a subtle taste of alcohol.
Kayti Lavergne
November 2, 2018 at 9:58 pmOh yum! I haven’t tried parrot bay before! Thanks for the suggestion, I’m so glad you enjoyed the drink! 🙂

April 15, 2018 at 3:48 pmI want to make this for about 20 people. How much of each ingredient do I use.
Kayti Lavergne
April 15, 2018 at 4:30 pmWell I’ve never made if for a large group of people before, but I would use 2 bottles of pineapple juice, 1 bottle of rum, and 1/2 bottle of grenadine to make it. If you are making it in a large punch bowl, that ratio should work. Just taste test as you go to make sure it isn’t too strong or sweet! Have fun!

July 28, 2017 at 8:04 pmThis has been a favorite drink of mine for years. While visiting Belize, our tour guide talked about this drink, which was a regular for me, but he called it the “panty ripper”.
My husband thought he’d be smart and order it by that nakpme back home and of course the bartender thought he was nuts.
I find it refreshing anytime of year.

July 28, 2017 at 8:16 pmHaha Lori, That’s a good story. I can so picture sipping this drink in Belize. Wonderful setting!
