Tools you'll need
Shaker
This is for mixing and chilling the ingredients for that classic Piña Colada texture. Our pro tip: you can also use a mason jar, thermos, or any jar you have in your kitchen with a tight-fitting lid.
Jigger or Measuring Tool
Just like any cocktail, you’ll need this for measuring the exact amounts of ingredients per the recipe. You can also use a 1 oz / 30 ml shot glass for the measurements, we do it all the time.
Strainer
To keep the ice out of your drink when pouring, ensuring a smooth texture. If you’re using a jar, simply hold the lid close to the top when pouring to keep the ice out.
Glass
The classic way to serve this drink is in a hurricane glass, since it shows off the creamy texture. But it’s your drink, so any tall glass will do, as long as it fits all the ingredients with the ice.
Knife and Cutting Board
This is for slicing the pineapple for the garnish. Just be careful and make sure the board is dry when cutting to avoid any slippage.

Imagine the tropical taste of a classic Piña Colada mixed with the coffee goodness of an Espresso Martini. The coconut sweetness mixes perfectly with the bitterness of the cold brew concentrate tropical coffee-style cocktail. It’s delicious, trust us!
-
While optional, we love to add a splash of it in this drink. We find it gives a lighter texture with a more accentuated coconutty flavor.
-
Yes! We love sweet drinks. Simply add a splash of simple syrup to the mix before shaking to give it an added boost of sweetness.
-
We find that adding a squeeze of lime or lemon juice will counteract the sweetness of the Malibu Original and cream of coconut.
-
Sure, but it’s not our first choice. Coconut milk is thinner so you won’t get the same rich and creamy texture that cream of coconut gives. Whereas, coconut cream is not sweet and will split easier.
-
Definitely. For a higher ABV (Alcohol By Volume) drink, replace half of the Malibu Original with Malibu Black. Just remember to enjoy responsibly.
-
Absolutely! Simply swap out the Malibu Original in the recipe with the same amount of coconut water, add a splash of simple syrup for added sweetness, and you’ll have a delicious mocktail.
