Pineapple Coconut Margaritas
Report
Today I'm sharing one of my favorite cocktail recipes - the Pineapple Coconut Margarita! This refreshing cocktail is packed with juicy pineapple, creamy coconut, and tart lime juice- it's like a piña colada spiked with tequila. It's the perfect blend of sweet and tangy, with a creamy coconut finish that will transport you straight to the beach!

Ingredients
Coconut Rim Garnish
- 2 tbsp sweetened coconut flakes
- 1 tbsp agave nectar
Coconut Pineapple Margaritas
- 2 ounces tequila
- 1 ounce cream of coconut Coco Lopez brand preferred
- 2 ounces pineapple juice
- 1/2 ounce lime juice
- ice
- Lime slices for garnish
- pineapple chunks for garnish
- Edible Flowers for garnish
Instructions
- Make the Toasted Coconut Rim
- In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the coconut flakes for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally so most of the coconut flakes brown.
- Pour the toasted coconut onto a small plate. Set aside.
- Make the Margarita
- Pour the agave nectar onto a plate, then dip the rim of your glass into the agave nectar.
- Dip the rim into the toasted coconut flakes, covering every part of the rim with the coconut.
- Add ice to your glass and to your cocktail shaker.
- Pour the tequila, cream of coconut, pineapple juice, and lime juice into the cocktail shaker, put the cover on and shake vigorously until very well combined and cold, for about 30 seconds.
- Pour the cocktail into your prepared glass, then garnish with your lime, pineapple, and edible flowers.
- Enjoy cold!
Notes
- This recipe is easily multiplied for a crowd!
- Make a pitcherful of pineapple coconut margarita by blending everything up in a blender (without ice!) instead of in a cocktail shaker with ice.
- Amp up the coconut flavor by swapping in coconut tequila.
- Make it a mocktail by subbing the tequila for a non-alcoholic alternative or leaving it out all together.
- If you can't find Cream of Coconut, you can use coconut cream. I highly suggest using a blender if you're doing this so there aren't chunks of coconut cream in your drink. And since it's not sweet, you're going to want some simple syrup in there as well.
- Swap tequila for rum to really get into the piña colada vibes.
