Blue Hawaiian

Blue Hawaiian 

Serves 6

This was a favorite around our house back during Covid days when we’d do a Tiki Night after work on the occasional Friday. It’s based on the Trader Vic recipe and I thought it was a pretty good candidate for the Slushi. This is a sweeter cocktail, but I don’t think it’s overly sweet. Flavor-wise it’s very similar to a Pina Colada but with a striking blue color due to the Blue Curaçao. Use a good one like Drillaud or Giffard. For the rum, I like to use Hamilton 87, Plantation Silver, or Stades White.

9oz White/Silver Rum

3oz Blue Curacao

6oz Coco Lopez

18oz Pineapple Juice

1.5oz Lemon Juice

26.5oz Water

Add all ingredients to Slushi and set to Spiked setting. Alternatively, you can pre-mix and chill in the fridge. I wouldn’t recommend doing this more than 24 hours in advance as the quality can degrade. Pre-chilling will reduce the time required to freeze the drink. Once it reaches the desired consistency, serve an enjoy.
