Blue Hawaii Mocktail

Yields: 1 drink

Prep time: 5 minutes

What You Will Need

• Measuring spoons

• Cocktail shaker

Ingredients

• ½ ounce blue curaçao syrup (see notes section below for better-for-you option) 

• 1 ounce lime juice (see Note 1) 

• 2 ounce pineapple juice 

• 2 ounce coconut water (no sugar added) 

• 1 tablespoon coconut milk or cream of coconut (see Note 2) 

• 1 ounce non-alcoholic rum (optional) 

• Extra fruit and/or edible flowers for garnish 

Instructions

1. Add all ingredients (except the garnishes) to a shaker with 3-4 cubes of ice. Shake for around 15 seconds to combine, then strain over fresh ice and garnish with extra fruit and/or edible flowers. Serve immediately. 

Notes

• Note 1 - lime juice: adjust this amount to ½ ounce (15 ml) lime juice if you're more of a sweet tooth. I find tropical mocktails very sweet and will often use extra lime juice to balance it out, so find an amount that works for you. If unsure, start with ½ (15 ml) oz, shake, have a little sip from the shaker, then add more and shake again if you wish. 

• Note 2 - coconut cream or cream of coconut: coconut cream will give a milder, creamier flavor whereas cream of coconut will offer additional sweetness. 

• Try my nourishing Blue Hawaiian Mocktail: 

  • ¼ teaspoon blue spirulina powder 

  • 1-2 teaspoons hot water 

  • 1 oz (30 ml) lime juice 

  • 2 oz (60 ml) pineapple juice 

  • 2 oz (60 ml) coconut water 

  • 1 tablespoon coconut milk 

  • Optional: 1 oz (30 ml) non-alcoholic rum 

  • Place the blue spirulina and hot water in a small bowl and stir to combine. Leave to cool for a few minutes then add it to a shaker with the remaining ingredients and some ice. Shake for around 15 seconds to combine, then strain over fresh ice and garnish with fruit and/edible flowers 

• A note on color: the drink pictured in this post uses blue spirulina as the base. If you use blue curacao, the end result will be more of an aqua color. 

• Nutrition Notes: nutritional information is calculated using spirulina powder and coconut cream.
