August is National Rum Month and Arli’s Appetite has teamed up again with Blue Chair Bay to create the perfect drink.  Blue Chair Bay offers seven rum flavors and I decided to use the Coconut Spiced Rum again because I created lots of delicious cocktails with the last bottle and I wanted to stick with what I know.

The idea behind this drink was to create a tropical oasis that was easy to make at home and nothing says “tropical vacation” like a Pina Colada. I decided to go the non-traditional route and serve it neat over ice instead of frozen.

Ingredients: 

2 oz Blue Chair Bay Coconut Spiced Rum

1 oz Pineapple Juice

1 oz Club Soda

Pineapple Garnish (Optional)

Instructions: 

Pour all ingredients into a cocktail shaker.

Shake well.

Pour mix over ice

Add pineapple garnish
