Tips
- Use bourbon for a sweeter, vanilla-forward flavor, or rye whiskey for a spicier kick.
- Adjust the consistency by adding more ice for a thicker frozen drink or more pineapple juice for a smoother texture.
- Chill the glass beforehand to keep the cocktail colder longer.
- For a richer coconut flavor, add a splash of coconut milk.
- Blend with frozen pineapple chunks instead of some of the ice for extra fruit flavor.
- To make a mocktail version, replace the whiskey with additional pineapple juice or coconut water.
