Instructions
Combine the pineapple juice, rum, blue curacao, and lime juice in a small pitcher and lightly stir.
Pour in the White Claw and give it another light stir.
Pour the cocktail mixture into individual glasses with ice. If desired, garnish with a lime slice, pineapple slice, or maraschino cherries.
Serve immediately.
Notes
This cocktail is meant to be lightly flavored and not overpowering with gorgeous, eye-catching colors. However, if you want more flavor, add more pineapple juice. You can also play with the amounts to suit your tastes and preferences.
You can use any flavor of White Claw (or another seltzer for that matter!) you prefer. Watermelon is the best for this drink in my opinion. You’ll just want to make sure the flavor matches the drink or you’ll end up with a strange-tasting cocktail.
If you don’t have lime juice, you could swap it with lemon juice, in a pinch - it still tastes great!
For an added flavor bonus, use spiced or banana rum instead of white or light rum for a real island taste.
It's important that you don’t overmix once you add the seltzer. Overmixing tends to flatten the seltzer and it makes the flavor not near as good.
