NOT YOUR MOM’S PIÑA COLADA

Pineapple Habanero White Barrel Aged Balsamic · Sweet Smoked Chili Rub & Seasoning


Servings: 2


Prep Time: 5 mins | Cook Time: 0 mins


This isn’t your average Piña Colada! We’ve added a kick with Pineapple Habanero White Barrel Aged Balsamic and fresh habanero slices, giving you the perfect mix of sweet and heat. This drink is tropical, fun, and just a little spicy to make it your new favorite cocktail for when you want to feel like you’re on a beach (rain or shine)!


Ingredients:

2 oz White Rum

2 oz Cream of Coconut

2 oz Pineapple Juice

¼ cup Fresh, Canned, or Frozen Pineapple Chunks

1 cup Ice

1 Habanero Pepper, thinly sliced (to taste)

1 oz Pineapple Habanero White Barrel Aged Balsamic, plus more to rim the glasses — available in 100ml · 250ml · 500ml · 750ml

2 tsp Sweet Smoked Chili Rub & Seasoning, for rimming the glasses

Maraschino Cherries, to garnish


Directions:

  1. Combine the rum, cream of coconut, pineapple juice, pineapple chunks, ice, habanero slices, and 1 oz Pineapple Habanero White Barrel Aged Balsamic in a blender and process until smooth. (Depending on your heat tolerance, we recommend starting with 5-6 slices of habanero pepper.)

  2. To rim the glasses, add 1-2 tsp Pineapple Habanero White Barrel Aged Balsamic to a small plate and the Sweet Smoked Chili Rub & Seasoning to another small plate. Dip your glass in the balsamic, then into the rub.

  3. Pour the drink into your rimmed glasses and garnish with maraschino cherries. We highly recommend drink umbrellas for full tropical effect. Enjoy!
