Graceful Island Delight Cocktail
Tropical journey in this Graceful Island Delight!
I set out to make a drink that my son’s girlfriend, Grace, would love! Her favorite drink that I make her is a simple Malibu Rum and pineapple juice. So, I wanted to elevate that cocktail. Hence the debut of the Graceful Island Delight Cocktail…named correctly by Grace herself!
It isn’t hard to go wrong with Malibu, especially pineapple flavored! Add fresh banana, and pineapple chunks, blended together! It’s almost like a healthy smoothie…right!?!
To blend or not to blend
I get it, who wants to lug out a huge blender for one Island cocktail? First off make more than one, if you have to justify it! Or buy a small personal blender. There are all kinds on the market. Just make sure that you get one that can properly blend ice cubes. I got one from Amazon that it just right. It blends ice cubes, fresh fruit and liquid without a huge clean up! Plus, it is dishwasher safe! My affiliate link to that personal blender is https://amzn.to/3K9POSB. It blends all the ingredients in the Graceful Island Delight beautifully!
What to eat with this Graceful Island Delight Cocktail?
Personally, the question should probably be, what doesn’t go with the Graceful Island Delight? But if you need help deciding on an appetizer to pair with this cocktail, I am your girl! With a fresh fruity cocktail like this I would pair it with my Jalapeno Popper Wonton Cups or my Warm Spinach Artichoke Dip served with warm bread all you will need is a beach umbrella and a chair!
