Notes
Storage:
If you have any leftover cream of coconut be sure to store it in an airtight container in the fridge.
If you happen to have made a pitcher of Blue Hawaiian Cocktails and you have some leftover put it in an airtight container and refrigerate. It will be fine for 2 or 3 days. Shake before pouring.
Tips
- Try using coconut rum or pineapple rum.
- Make this a non-alcoholic mocktail by leaving out the rum and blue curacao. Use blue curacao syrup, which is non-alcoholic. One brand that makes it is Torani and you can find it on Amazon.
- Leave the coconut cream out and use coconut water or cream soda for a lighter drink.
