Print Recipe

A simple and visually stunning tropical punch featuring layered coconut rum and pineapple flavors, perfect for summer parties and casual gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz (240 ml) Coconut Rum (e.g., Malibu)
  • 2 cups (480 ml) Pineapple Juice (freshly pressed or good-quality bottled, no added sugar)
  • 1 cup (240 ml) Coconut Cream (e.g., Thai Kitchen)
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) Fresh Lime Juice (freshly squeezed)
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) Simple Syrup (equal parts sugar dissolved in water)
  • 1 cup (240 ml) Club Soda or Sparkling Water (plain or lightly flavored)
  • 1 cup (150 g) Pineapple Chunks (fresh preferred, canned works)
  • Ice Cubes

Instructions

  1. Chill all your ingredients (pineapple juice, coconut cream, rum) for about 1 hour to help keep the layers from mixing.
  2. In a large pitcher, combine pineapple juice (480 ml), rum (240 ml), and fresh lime juice (60 ml). Stir gently to blend (about 2 minutes).
  3. Add 60 ml of simple syrup to balance tartness. Stir gently again and adjust sweetness if desired.
  4. Fill each serving glass about halfway with ice cubes to help maintain the layers.
  5. Slowly pour the chilled coconut cream (240 ml) over the back of a spoon held just above the base layer in each glass to create a floating layer.
  6. Top each glass with about 60 ml of club soda or sparkling water, pouring gently to maintain layers.
  7. Garnish with pineapple chunks and a lime wedge on the rim. Serve immediately for best visual effect.

Notes

Chill ingredients well to maintain distinct layers. Pour coconut cream slowly over the back of a spoon to create the layered effect. Adjust sweetness with simple syrup to taste. For a non-alcoholic version, substitute rum with extra pineapple juice and coconut water. Store base punch (without ice or soda) in the fridge up to 24 hours; add ice, coconut cream, and soda just before serving.
