AuthorHeather WallaceCategorycOcktailsDifficultyBeginnerDon't "tequila" my vibe! This piña margarita will definitely give you some vibes...it's the perfect combination of a piña colada with the sweetness of coconut and pineapple paired with a salty and tart margarita!
I usually make two shakers of this drink which results in 4 cocktails, my husband and I both get a glass and a nice chilled refill awaits you when you are done enjoying your first drink. I first had this piña margarita at a restaurant and my husband had ordered another drink of his own...he immediately was jealous after taking a sip out of my glass so I knew I had to try to recreate it at home. The results were an immediate success, and I can't tell you how quickly we went through a bottle of Malibu rum lol.
The fun thing about this drink is that you could really make a ton of different varieties by replacing an ingredient or two and making it your own. You could replace the Malibu rum with a banana liquor, or replace the pineapple juice with mango juice...hmm, where is my notebook to write these ideas down?!
Take life with a grain of salt and a slice of lime!
Run a lime wedge around the rim of a margarita glass and dip it into flaky sea salt to coat.
In a cocktail shaker, combine 2-ounces of Malibu rum, 4 1/2-ounces of pineapple juice 1 1/2-ounces of coconut cream, 1-ounce of white rum, 2-ounces of reposado tequila, 1/2-ounce of freshly squeezed lime juice, and ice.
Shake for 30 seconds.
Strain into your salt-rimmed margarita glass filled with ice.
Garnish with a lime wedge.
