Island Girl Drink Recipe
Ingredients
The ingredients list for this Island Girl Cocktail is pretty easy to acquire, and you don’t have to have the optional garnish parts even though they up the overall appearance of the drink. The full ingredient list is as follows:
- Coconut Rum (We prefer Blue Chair bay)
- Orange Juice
- Pineapple Juice
- Lemon-Lime Soda
- Manichino Cherries
- Orange Slices (Optional garnish)
Equipment
To make this great-tasting island cocktail, you’ll need two Collins glasses and a cocktail shaker. We prefer to use a metal shaker as they seem to get the mixture colder, but any shaker type will do.
Recipe Steps
The steps for this drink are straightforward. Just add the ice, rum, orange, and pineapple juice to the shaker cup. Shake until blended. Take your ice-filled collins glasses and add a couple of ounces of lemon-lime juice to them and top each off with the rum mixture.
