The Ocean Mile



We had one of these recently at Duke's in Maui, called the Ocean Mile.
So beautiful, so enjoyable on a sunny day.
So maybe today wasn't as sunny as that afternoon on Maui, but I do believe this will put you in a Hawaiian frame of mind.
Add a cute lil' ole umbrella, and you are almost there.

For the record, my new hurricane glasses cost .69 cents and came from Goodwill.  
GO me!
Who knew that .69 cents could make you so happy? 
Oh... maybe it was the refreshing beverage?
  
Note- For the record, a jigger is a unit of measurement... a ratio... so anything you use to measure with.  I suggest a 1/4 cup measuring cup, or a 1 or 2 oz shot glass, depends on how much alcohol you want.


Makes 1
Ingredients 

Plenty of crushed ice
1 jigger vodka, regular or lemon
1 jigger malibu rum
1 jigger blue curacao
1-2 jiggers pineapple juice

Garnishes- Pineapple, an umbrella, a slice of lime or lemon 

In a tall glass, fill 3/4 of the way with crushed ice.  Add a jigger of blue curacao.  Then add a jigger each of Malibu rum and vodka. Top with pineapple juice and garnish with an umbrella.

Let the person enjoying the drink to stir up the layers.   

Ahhh...

  1. The real Ocean Mile is made with Ocean Vodka, Koloa Coconut Rum, and Blue Cacaio. The vodka and rum are made on Maui.
