🍹 Tropic Sunset Cooler

A tropical trifecta of coconut, mango, and cranberry with a splash of lime—like sipping the last rays of a beach sunset.

📝 Ingredients (Serves 1):

• 2 oz coconut rum (like Malibu) 🥥

• 2 oz mango juice (chilled) 🥭

• 2 oz cranberry juice (100% juice or cranberry cocktail) 🍒

• ½ oz fresh lime juice 🍋

• Ice cubes

• Optional garnish: Lime wheel, mango slice, or maraschino cherry

🍹 Instructions:

1. Layer the Look (Optional for Sunset Effect)

If you’d like a layered “sunset” appearance:

• Fill a tall glass (like a highball or hurricane) with ice.

• First pour in the cranberry juice — it’ll form the base.

• In a shaker, combine coconut rum, mango juice, and lime juice, shake gently, then slowly pour over the cranberry to layer.

If you’re not aiming for the sunset look, just add all ingredients to a shaker, shake with ice, and strain over fresh ice in your glass.

2. Stir (if not layered)

• Stir gently to combine for a uniform tropical-pink drink.

3. Garnish & Serve

• Garnish with a lime wheel or mango slice on the rim.

• Drop in a maraschino cherry for extra pop.

🍹 Optional Twists:

• Frozen Version: Blend everything with ice for a slushy-style cooler.

• Mocktail Version: Skip the rum and use coconut water or cream soda.

• Tropical Punch Bowl: Multiply the recipe by 6 and serve in a bowl with sliced citrus and berries.

🌴 Perfect For:

• Beach nights

• Pool parties

• Sunset toasts

• Summer BBQs

• Tiki themes and tropical vacations in a glass
