Pacific Gold Cocktail

Serves: 2

Print this Recipe

(Oro de Pacifico)
Category: Mixed Alcoholic Drinks and Cocktails
Along the Pacific coast of Mexico, this drink is usually thought of as a "sun-downer." Tourists and locals gather in bars along the beach before having dinner to enjoy often-spectacular sunsets.


   1 cup cracked ice (see Note below)
   6 ounces pineapple juice
   4 ounces fresh grapefruit juice
   2 ounces silver or white tequila
   2 ounces white rum
   2 ounces sweet coconut cream, such as Coco Lopez
   2 sprigs mint leaves


Put the ice in a blender jar. Add all of the remaining ingredients but the mint, and blend until smooth. Pour equally into 2 (10-ounce) Pilsner-style glasses. Add a straw and garnish with the mint. Serve cold.

NOTE: To crack ice cubes, put them in a heavy plastic bag, remove air from the bag, seal it, then put the bag on a cutting board. With a hammer or heavy rolling pin, gently break cubes into chips.
