A Jack Frost Cocktail is what the doctor ordered when icy cold winter has hit, but you’re daydreaming about the beach. If you can’t go to a tropical island, bring the tropics to you! This drink is sweet, tropical like a piña colada, and festive all at the same time – it’s a trio of holiday fun and deliciousness.

Jack Frost Cocktail Recipe

Ingredients you need:

  • Light corn syrup, for rimming glasses
  • Coconut flakes, for rimming glasses
  • Crushed ice
  • Pineapple juice
  • Blue Curacao liquor
  • Light rum
  • Cream of coconut (not coconut milk)

(For exact measurements and details, scroll below to the easy printable recipe card.)

How to Make a Jack Frost Cocktail

  1. Pour a thin layer of corn syrup onto a shallow plate. Place coconut flakes on another shallow plate. Dip the rim of a cocktail glass in the corn syrup and then in the coconut flakes. Set aside.
  2. In a blender, add the ice, pineapple juice, blue curacao, rum, and cream of coconut. Blend until smooth.
  3. Pour the mixture into the glasses and serve immediately.

That it’s – so easy!

Winter Cocktail Recipe Notes

  • Cream of coconut vs. coconut milk – these two items are not at all the same thing. Make sure you are using cream of coconut, which has a thick and rich consistency, and very commonly used in mixed drinks. It’s usually located in the liquor aisle at most grocery stores.
  • Swap out the light rum for vodka, if you prefer.
  • Make a martini instead – if you don’t want an icy drink, you can easily make a martini instead. In a shaker with ice, shake the pineapple juice, cream of coconut, the rum, and blue curacao. Strain into a martini glass and enjoy.
  • Need it without the booze? No problem. Omit the rum and replace the Blue Curacao liquor with Blue Curacao syrup for a non-alcoholic version.
